Wiring Harness Design

Step 1- In this wiring harness design we use four different types of connector.

- first of all, all connector we have to define electrically.

-Step to Define Connectors-

  1. In Part design , define geometrical parameters like entry point, exit point, axis.
  2. Switch into Electrical part design, define electrical parameters like define as connector, define bundle connection point, define connector connection point.

Electrically Defined Four Connectors given below-

DT06-2s

DT06-4s

DT06-6s

DT06-8sa

- All 4 connectors store in catalogue.

Step 2- Create main product file ( Assy wiring Harness Context ) and sub product file ( Assy Geometrical Bundle ).

Step 3- Add our four connectors by using calalogue browser command.

- Switch into Electrical Harness Assembly.

- Use 1st Command Geometrical Bundle to convert Mechanical into Electical.

Step 4- Possitioning all the connectors with help of sketch.

-Steps for Sketch:- Go to Start-Mechanical Design-Sketcher.

- After Completing the sketch , copy the sketch and paste in our main product file.

Step 5- Switch into Electrical Harness Assembly.

- Use Command Multibranchable Document for creating wire between connectors.

- Then use command Add Branch Point for sub branches.

- and last use command Protective Covering for covering wires by COT tubes and Insulation tape.
