CONNECTOR DEFINATIONS IN CATIA V5
1. Deutsch DT06 – 08SA
Connector connection point:
Create midpoint on the contact face which will be normal to wire bundle insertion

Craete Axis System with respect to the point which we have created and defining the axis direction as shown below,

Create midpoint on the contact face which will be normal to wire bundle insertion,Craete Axis System with respect to the point which we have created and defining the axis direction as shown below,for wiring attachment area or bundle area

always while creating axis system we have to maintain the same moving and attaching direction
then we have to convert mechanical part into electrical part by switching in electrical part design then we have to define as electrical part
Define the part as connector in catia, give no. of termination as 8 because we have 8 entry points for wire.

Define Bundle connection point

Define connector connection point

Steps followed given bellow

2.Tyco 174357-2 :
- Create midpoint
- create Connector connection point
- create Connector connection axis system
- create cavity connection point
- create cavity connection axis system
- Switch to Electric part design and define part as connector
- Define Connector connection point and cavity connection point

Axis system

after that define it as a electrical part


bundle connection

Steps used

3. Tyco 85229-1 :
- Create midpoint
- create cavity connection point
- create cavity connection axis system and orientation should be same as in connector
- Switch to Electric part design and define part as Mounting Equipment
- Define cavity connection point


then we go electrical assemble design

first we already define axis so we switch electrical assemble design and go to

this option and select electrical part

And it assembled.
