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

AIM:

CONNECTOR DEFINATIONS IN CATIA V5

1. Deutsch DT06 – 08SA

STEPS :

1. GEOMETRICAL PARAMETERS : done on PART WORKBENCH

Create midpoint on the contact face which will be normal to wire bunddle insertion.

2. POINT ON BUNDLE CONNECTION 

3. AXIS SYSTEM ON CONNENCTOR CONNECTION POINT

Switch to 'Electric Part Design'

1. DEFINE CONNECTOR

2. Define Bundle connection point

 3. Define connector connection point

 2.Tyco 174357-2 :

GEOMETRICAL PARAMETER

1. BUNDLE ENTERY POINT

CONNECTOR CONNECTION POINT

CAVITY CONNECTION POINT

 

CONNECTOR CONNECTION AXIS

CAVITY CONNECTION AXIS 

SWITCH TO ELECTRICAL PART DESIGN

 

1. DEFINE CONNECTOR

2. DEFINE BUNDLE CONNECTION POINT

3. DEFINE CONNECTOR CONNECTION POINT

 

4. DEFINE CAVITY CONNECTION POINT

3. Tyco 85229-1 :

• Switch to Electric part design and define part as Mounting Equipment

DEFINE CAVITY

SWITCH to Elctrical Assembly Design workbench  To get the assembly of coonector and mounting clip.

• Import Connector and cavity / mounting clip.
• Select Defing Eelectric connection 
• select cavity and then connector.

 

 

 conclusion :

Hence i have Define it as Electrical Connector using Electrical Part design Workbench.
