Wiring harness design in CATIA V5 - 3D modeling Week 2 Challenge

Objective:-

Download following connectors & Connector clip cad data from given link & define it as Electrical Connector using Electrical Part design Workbench. Define all the necessary properties to Connectors & Clip.

1. Deutsch DT06 – 08SA ( https://www.te.com/usa-en/product-DT06-08SA.html)
2. Tyco 174357-2 (https://www.te.com/usa-en/product-2-174357-2.html?source=header-match)
3. Tyco 85229-1 – (https://www.te.com/usa-en/product-85229-1.html?q=85229&source=header)

Routing Procedure:-

• First download the given CAD data.

• Define it as electical connector or cavity depending upon how the component is going to work.
• Then create a mounting point on the connector and create axis system on the point.
• Make sure that the direction of the axis system should be lie according to the conectors.
• Here X is point toward the left because the locking mechanism is in the sides of the connector and Y should point the direction from where the bundle and mating part is going to connect. According to the X and Y we can direct the Z.

• Then using the Electrical part design we have to define the bundle and connector connection point.

Bundle Connection:

Connector Connection:

Connector:-

• First download the given CAD data.

• Define it as electical connector or cavity depending upon how the component is going to work.
• Then create a mounting point on the connector and create axis system on the point.
• Make sure that the direction of the axis system should be lie according to the conectors.
• Here X is point toward the up because the locking mechanism is in the top sides of the connector and Y should point the direction from where the bundle and mating part is going to connect. According to the X and Y we can direct the Z.

• Then using the Electrical part design we have to define the bundle and connector connection point.

Bundle Connection:

Connector Connection Point:

Cavity Connection Point:

Mounting Clip:-

• For the mounting clip we have to define it as cavity.

• Then create a cavity point on the mounting and create axis system on the point.
• Make sure that the direction of the axis system should be lie according to the Connectors.
• Here X is point toward the up because the locking mechanism is in the top side of the connector and Y should point the direction from where the bundle and mating part is going to connect. According to the X and Y we can direct the Z. In the mounting we have to give the axi system like how the axis system in the connector.

• Then using Electrical Assembly Design we have to give the constrais between the connector and mounting clip.
