Wiring harness design in CATIA V5 - 3D modeling Week 7 Challenge

Wiring Harness Flattening

• This wiring harness bundle is from the week 4 challenge which we will use to perform the wiring harness flattening.
• Start by opening a new product and configure all the settings in tools and options inside wiring harness flattening and after the desired settings are done, we open a new product file and use the flattening parameters and set all the parameters.
• The next step is to use the extract option and extract the geometrical bundle of the wiring harness assembly.
• We then use the flatten option to flatten the harness bundle.
• Now to create a drawing of the flattened wirings harness bundle, open a new drawing and use the front view option and select one face of the connector and place it on the drawing sheet.
• Now we have the drawing of our flattened wiring harness bundle.
