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

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

AIM:

To create flatten harness assembly Drawing of above given layout.A nd we need to give bundles with protective coverings with different visuals on drawing view.

Process involved in Harness Flattening:

Creation of Harness Assembly:

The given above layout is already completed in the previous challenge. So, the geometric bundle is assembly taken from there.

Creation of Harness flattening Assembly:

● After the creation of the harness design assembly, we need to create a new product file.

● Then switch to harness flatten assembly.

● After that we need to define the flatten parameters as shown in the image.

● After that we need to use the extract command and import the harness design assembly as .ehf file.During this time tile the window vertically..

● Then select the Flatten command - select face for the flattering view - select bundle branches - click ok.

● Here we got our flatten assembly with some default geometrical alignment. we need to use the rotate, roll, scale command as per required layout.

● After that we got our final output of harness flatten assembly.

Drawing creation:

● First we need to create a new drawing file interface.

● Before that we need to ensure with flatten parameters,Inside that we go to drawing and check with bundle segments in single line, protective cover in double line.

● Then graphical representation of the connector should be in 3D projection.

● Then we need to import the front view always on the drawing sheet, for the drawing sheet here we choose A0 size.

● After importing we got as below mentioned diagram.in this we need to change some view properties.

● For aesthetic properties we need to add some text on this drawing.

Conclusion:

● From this challenge we learned the harness flatten assembly and drawing representation successfully.
