Automotive wiring harness is the main body of the automotive circuit, there is no car wiring harness there is no car circuit. Wire harness refers to the components made of copper stamping contact terminals (connectors) and wire and cable crimp, the outer plastic pressure insulator or additional metal shell, etc., bundled with a wire harness to form the connection circuit components. Harness industry chain, including wire and cable, connectors, processing equipment, harness manufacturing and downstream applications industry, harness a wide range of applications, can be used in automobiles, household appliances, computers and communications equipment, all kinds of electronic instrumentation, etc., body wiring harness to connect the entire body , The general shape was H-shaped.
Automotive wire, also known as low voltage wire, it is different from ordinary household wire. Ordinary household wire is copper single core wire, there is a certain hardness. The car wires are copper multi-core cord, some soft as thin as hair, and even dozens of soft copper wire wrapped in plastic insulated tube (PVC), soft and not easily broken.
Because of the special nature of the automotive industry, automotive wiring harness manufacturing process is also more special than other ordinary wiring harness.
The system for making automotive wiring harnesses roughly falls into two categories:
1. To Europe and the United States divided, including China: the use of TS16949 system to control the manufacturing process.
2. Japan-based: They have their own system to control the manufacturing process.
With the increase of car functions, the common application of electronic control technology, more and more electrical parts, wires will be more and more, the harder the harnesses become heavier and heavier. Therefore, to enhance the older car on the introduction of the CAN bus configuration, the use of multi-channel transmission system. Compared with the traditional wiring harness, multi-input device greatly reduces the number of wires and connectors, so that wiring is more simple.
