• INTRODUCTION TO WIRE HARNESS:

 

• DEFINIG ELECTRIC PARAMETER FLOW CHART
• CONNECTOR DEFINATIONS IN CATIA V5

1. Deutsch DT06 – 08SA

• Connector connection point

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

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

• Bundle connection point:

Switch to 'Electric Part Design'

• 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

 

 

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

 

 

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

Elctric Assembly Design:

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