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

1.Deutsch DT06 – 08SA

Connector connection point: Make a midpoint on the contact face for wire bundle insertion.

Create an axis system with respect to the point we just made, defining the axis direction as shown below.

Bundle connection point:

Switch to 'Electric Part Design'

In Catia, define the part as a connector and set the number of terminations to four because we have four entry points for wire.

Define the connector connection point and the bundle connection point.
