According to the knowledge of automotive wiring harness and the characteristics of wiring harness components, we established the model of wiring harness graph. Then we research the algorithm of identifying technology processes automatically, finally we describe the relationships between processes by introducing the constraint matrix, which is in or- der to lay a good foundation for harness process planning and production scheduling.展开更多

The biggest benefit of this technology is the possibility to perform the weld without additionmaterials, like terminals, metal rings or tapes. Manufacturing of wiring harnesses demands a significant amount of joining, such aswelding, crimping or soldering, to fulfill the desired layout of the harnesses and capacity requirements, but conventional connectionprocesses, face difficulties in joining multiple cross sections mainly due to the characteristics of the processes and equipment in use.Ultrasonic metal welding process overcomes these issues due to the solid-state characteristics inherent to the process itself that includethe excellent electrical properties of the joint. Several researches on ultrasonic metal welding are being done to define the fundamentalmechanisms behind this process and it is being seen that they are completely dependent on the cross section to be welded. With thisresearch we are trying to develop methods for process characterization and define acceptable quality parameters in this process. Themain topics addressed in this paper are the characterization the weld formation using copper-to-copper wires using optical microscopyand the analysis of insulation material when submitted to different thermal conditions.展开更多
