The manufacturing process design of automotive wiring harnesses is to avoid or reduce semi-finished product manufacturing errors, wiring harness assembly errors, and detection errors during the production process, minimize the rework and repair of semi-finished and finished wiring harnesses, and improve the manufacturing efficiency and quality of wiring harnesses. Reduce production and manufacturing costs.
The tangential crimping process is the most automated process in the manufacture of automotive wiring harnesses. Most of the domestic wiring harness factories use automated tangential crimping equipment for operation. The usual manufacturing errors are the wrong use of wires, terminals, waterproof plugs, and wires. The wrong length and the wrong crimping die lead to incorrect crimping standards, resulting in rework or scrapping of semi-finished products.
Factories that use the wire harness HMES system usually scan the barcodes of materials and molds for error prevention when switching between different kanbans. Sound and image alarms will appear when scanning code errors, which can effectively prevent the wrong use of materials.
