SSarang Shinde13 May 2023

Aim:

Electrically defined the given connecters and connecter clip with the help of geometry and assemble by the electrical wiring harness workbench.

Introduction:

Wiring harness:

Systematic bound of electric wires and electric parts This process is doing in CAD for assembly and production. E.g.: wire, connecters, back shell etc.

Connecters:

It is connecting electrically one function with another or connect the wires.

Clips:

Generally, clips are mounding some parts. In this model clips are mounding the connecters.

Tools:

For electrically define some create some geometries and electrical part design tools.

Mechanical part work bench:

Point:

It indicates one location. This tool is used to create between two points in the centre of face.

Axis system:

It is fixed on a point and give X, Y, Z direction and plane in the location which is used to define and assemble the electrical parts.

Electrical part work bench:

Define connecters:

This option is used to define the connecter with buddle entry points. After this process CATIA will take the part as connecter.

Define mounding equipment:

This option is used to define as mounding equipment. After this process it take as mounding equipment.

Define connecter connection point:

This option is used to define the connecter connection point with the help representation, contact, coincident and orientation which are given by point, surface and axis system.

Define bundle connection point:

This option is used to define the bundle entry point of connecter with the help representation, contact, coincident and orientation which are given by point, surface and axis system.

Define cavity connection point:

This option is used to define the cavity connection point of connecter with the help representation, contact, coincident and orientation which are given by point, surface and axis system.

Define cavity:

This option is used to define the cavity connection point of mounding equipment with the help representation, contact, coincident and orientation which are given by point, surface and axis system.

Electrical assembly:

Connect electrical device:

This option available in electrical assembly bench. This option is used to connect the two electrical devices. Arter defines the electrical device if we click the part it automatically assemble with help of point, axis, face of surface from electrical define.

Disconnect electrical device:

This option is used to disconnect the two electrical devices from connected devices.
