When it comes to electronics design and manufacturing processes, the use of a custom electronic cable harness assembly for your wires is very important. This can help avoid disrupting and slowing down processes caused by faulty wires or poor connections.

In this article, I’ll be sharing with you the fundamentals to know industrial cable harnesses, which are an essential component of electronics design. Read on to be informed.

What are Industrial Cable Harnesses?

An industrial cable harness is an assembly of electrical cables, connectors, and a group of wires that transmits signals or electrical power to one or more devices. It is also referred to as a wire harness or cable assembly.

The cables are connected by a strong, reliable, and durable material, such as shrink-wrapped thermoplastic rubber, vinyl, electrical tape, conduit, a weave of extruded string, or a combination of these.

Application of Industrial Cable Harnesses

Some common uses and applications of industrial cable harnesses are:

· Automobiles

· Flat-panel displays

· Flight simulators

· Ruggedized computers

· Large machinery

· Medical equipment

· Telecommunications devices

Importance of Industrial Cable Harnesses

Here are three beneficial importance of using industrial cable harnesses.

· Cable harnesses offer a robust defense that keeps cables and wires tucked away inside a tough outer sheath.

· Cable harnesses are designed for demanding environments where high and ongoing risks from heat, friction, or moisture exist.

· Cable harnesses are used to keep cables organized and make it easier for operators to assemble an electronic device correctly.

Types of Industrial Cable Harnesses

Cable harnesses are designed concerning the industry they will be used in, hence the different types. Here are the different types of industrial cable harnesses.

1. Cable harnesses for electric vehicles: battery pack, battery management system, CCS, power system, charging system.

2. Cable harnesses for the automotive industry: engine motor, engine control, car door, car seat, instrument panel, airbag.

3. Cable harnesses for renewable energy projects: solar energy, wind energy, and photovoltaic system.

4. Cable harnesses for consumer electronics: refrigerator, cooling, and heating system, and compressor.

5. Cable harnesses for medical equipment: ventilator.

6. Cable harnesses for telecommunication and industrial.

Industrial Cable Harnesses Manufacturing Process

Despite rising automation in electronic manufacturing processes, producing cable harnesses primarily by manual production methods (hands) is still the preferred and economical method.

This is because the manufacturing processes of cable harnesses are challenging to automate particularly when producing small batches. Here are the steps involved in the production of cable harnesses.

1. Wires are being run through sleeves.

2. Fabric tape should be applied, especially to wire strand branches.

3. Adding terminals to wires by crimping them, especially for "multiple crimps" (more than one wire into one terminal),

4. Putting one sleeve inside the other, using tape, clamps, or cable ties to secure the strands.
