What is UL certified wire and cable? UL is the abbreviation of Underwriters Laboratories Inc. UL Safety Laboratory is the most authoritative in the United States of America, and it is also the largest non-governmental organization engaged in safety testing and appraisal in the world.   UL certification is a standard in the United States. If products are exported to North American countries, UL certification is usually required. UL certification must be a third-party organization, and UL will give the certification file number, for example of Aichie’s UL number: E534394 Then check and confirm through the UL official website. At present, many companies only meet the UL standard, but have not passed the UL certification and have not been recognized by UL. There are many hidden dangers in this kind of wires and cables, so be sure to buy wires and cables that have obtained UL certification.   Dongguan Aichie Tech Electronic Co Ltd. obtained the UL certification on May 29, 2023, and the certificate number is E534394. This is a major achievement of the company, and also demonstrates the company's strength and influence in the global wire and cable field.       UL certification is one of the most well-known and authoritative certification bodies in the world.

Ford EV owners will use Tesla Superchargers   Ford announced on the evening of May 27 that it is working with Tesla to help expand electric vehicle possibilities for U.S.A customers.  Owners of Ford's electric vehicles including the Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning (above, CEO Jim Farley) can now use more than 12,000 EV Supercharger fast chargers for their Electrical vehicles.   Starting in 2025, Ford will also come standard with a built-in connector on its EVs, meaning Ford EV owners won't need a special adapter to use the supercharger.   In an announcement late Thursday, May 25, Ford said it had reached an agreement that will give Ford electric vehicle owners access to Tesla's network of Superchargers starting in the spring of 2024.   This will more than double the number of fast chargers in the U.S.A and Canada for owners of Ford EVs, including the Mustang Mach-E, E-Transit and F-150 Lightning pickup, Ford President and CEO Jim Farley said in the announcement. Currently, they offer about 10,000 fast chargers through Ford's BlueOval charging network, with over 12,000 Superchargers to be added under the agreement.   Ford EVs will also get an adapter to allow them to use a supercharger. The adapter, developed by Tesla, will be built into new Ford electric vehicles starting in 2025, the company said. The North American Charging Standard (NACS) connector on EVs equipped with Combined Charging System (CCS) ports will allow the vehicles to be used with Tesla V3 Superchargers. A Ford spokesman called the connector "smaller and lighter" and would "provide a superior customer experience."     Tesla Supercharging Station with Ford F-150 Lightning Pickup Aichie provides all kinds of high quality ev cable assembly  and  EV Charger Cable around the world.

HARTING charging cable (EV)   HARTING charging cables (EV) for Volkswagen's electric vehicles contributed to driver Rainer Zietlow's latest record. Zietlow, the multiple Guinness World Record holder, reached Deadhorse on April 2, 2023, at the far end of the Dalton Highway System on Alaska's North Coast, in a Volkswagen ID.4 AWD EV. No electric vehicle had reached this point earlier this year. Zietlow's drive began on March 28, 2023 in Homer, Alaska and ended on May 6, 2023 in Key West, Florida, the southernmost tip of the U.S.A highway system. During 8,500 miles of driving, Zietlow charged the ID.4 at charging stations and covered the distance without a service vehicle.   HARTING has a long history with Volkswagen and Zietlow. Volkswagen supported Zietlow with two previous record-breaking drives by awarding HARTING the "Supplier of the Year, Mobility 2020". The project can be tracked with pictures and videos and live tracker www.vwid4-alaskatour.com. As with all of his previous projects, Rainer Zietlow supports the charity SOS Children's Villages.   TTI Inc. was rated as   Best Distribution Partner of 2022 TTI Inc. announces that it has been named Distribution Partner of the Year by Smiths Interconnect for 2022 and has won the US Distributor of the Year award, thanks to a special focus on the space and defense market segments and support management of best-in-class inventory .

Electric vehicle (EV) charging connectors are both standardized and constantly changing. On the one hand, the charging connector of electric vehicles is standardized according to today's technical limitations. There are standards in major regional markets, including North America, Japan, the European Union and China. However, current charging technology is limited by power.   The standard of electric vehicle charging connector has been narrowed. For AC charging, North America and Japan use SAE J1772 type 1 connector, Europe uses IEC 62196 type 2 (also known as mennekes) connector, and China uses a version of GB/T connector. In North America and Europe, DC charging adopts a variant of combined charging system (CCS). Chademo is a Japanese standard, and gb/t is adopted in China. In addition, there are regional differences in the level of available power related to the difference in supply voltage.     Every electric vehicle sold in North America can use a charging station with J1772 connector. Except Tesla, all electric vehicles use J1772 for level 1 (120V) and level 2 (240V) charging. Tesla owners will receive an adapter cable to connect their electric vehicle to a charging station with a J1772 connector.   Since there is no 120V service in homes in Europe, level 1 charging is not used. Instead of J1772, IEC 62196 type 2 connector is used for Level 2 AC charging. Tesla is once again the exception, and most of its electric vehicles use proprietary connectors. However, a few Tesla models use IEC 62196 type 2 connectors. In Europe and North America, Tesla's class 1 and class 2 chargers use proprietary connectors, and electric vehicles from other manufacturers require adapters. Current DC fast charger uses 480 V main power supply for faster charging. With the advent of higher power and faster charging technology, this input voltage level is expected to rise in the future. In North America, CCS type 1 connector "combines" J1772 connector and adds two high-speed charging pins below. In Europe, CCS combines IEC 62196 type 2 with two high-speed charging pins, which is called CCS type 2.   CHARIN (charging interface initiative) is headquartered in Germany, and its goal is to establish CCS as the global standard for EV DC fast charging. CHARIN has more than 250 members and is working to develop new technologies and expand its scope to MW charging systems for large vehicles such as trucks, electric ferries, boats and aircraft.     Chademo, developed by Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), is used for EV DC fast charging all over Japan. Compared with CCS system, chademo connector does not share some connectors with J1772 inlet. Since chademo is strictly used for DC fast charging, electric vehicles using this connector also include a separate J1772 inlet for AC level 1 and level 2 charging, which requires a larger charging port area to accommodate two separate charging inlets.     Tesla is an exception to the above ...

On April 20, Tesla released the first quarter of the 2023 financial report. According to the financial report, Tesla's revenue in the first quarter was about $ 23.33 billion dollars, an increase of 24%year on year; net profit was about $2.513 billion dollars, and the operating profit margin was 11.4%. In addition, Tesla operating cash flow was $2.5 billion dollars, and the free cash flow in the first quarter was $ 400 million.       Since 2023, Tesla has opened a price reduction strategy worldwide, and even in certain areas, the price reduction has been reduced more than once. But it is terrible that although Tesla's profit margin fell more than 10%, it was still considerable: in the first quarter, it still maintained an 11.4% level, which was higher than many car companies.   According to Tesla, although the price of some models in different regions in the first quarter, the decline in operating profit margins is still controllable. At the same time, Tesla also expects vehicle costs to continue to decrease.     At present, Cybertruck is producing the Alpha version. When Cybertruck successfully begins to deliver and complete production capacity climbing, it is estimated that Tesla's revenue and profits will continue to increase. Perhaps this is the biggest impact of large -scale production on the manufacturing industry.     Tesla's price adjustment in the United States, price increase and price reduction coexist On April 20, the official website of Tesla showed that the price of Model Y long battery life and the high -performance version was reduced by $3,000 US dollars, and the price of the Model 3 rear -wheel drive version was reduced by $2,000 dollars.       At the same time, the price of Tesla Model S and Model X was raised by $ 2,500 in the United States. At present, Model S is priced at $ 87,490, Model S Plaid is priced at $ 107,490; Model X is priced at $ 97,490, Model X Plaid is priced at $ 107,490.   This kind of rising and falling situation perfectly explains the principles of Tesla's "cost -based pricing". Model 3 and Model Y are already the sixth time to reduce prices in the United States. Musk also hinted that although Tesla's price reduction measures at the beginning of this year have affected profit margins (profit margins have fallen by 10%and the market value evaporates $50 billion), Tesla will continue to reduce prices to stimulate demand. It is conceivable that Tesla's continuous price cuts will continue to impact the new energy market in the USA.   Aichie provides high -quality busbar low -voltage auto wiring harness and high voltage ev cable assembly around the world.

Cables: all cables consist of three types of wires. The first is to carry current, the second is to make the circuit complete, and the third is the grounding wire. These wires have different specification numbers, sizes and codes. The codes marked on them tell us their insulation and electrical capabilities. If the cable you use is marked "G", use a ground wire. One common example of this type of cable is the use 12 – 3/g cable. Cables usually have nm-b, BX and uf-b sheaths. They can be roughly divided into two types according to their conductors. The first is a two core cable, and the second is a three core cableNowadays, like everything else, wires and cables can also be purchased online. Many suppliers on the Internet are committed to providing all types of wires and electrical equipment online at a cost-effective price.

IATF (International Automotive Task Force) is a specialized organization established in 1996 by the world's major auto manufacturers and associations.   In order to harmonize the international automotive quality system specifications, a specialized agency was established in 1996 by the world's major automobile manufacturers and associations, called the International Automotive Task Force (IATF). IATF members include the International Organization for Standardization Quality Management and Quality Assurance Technical Committee (ISO/TC176), the Italian Automobile Industry Association (ANFIA), the French Automobile Manufacturers Committee (CCFA) and the Automobile Equipment Industry Federation (FIEV), the German Automobile Industry Association (VDA), car manufacturers such as BMW, Chrysler, Fiat, Ford, General Motors, Renault and Volkswagen, among others.

With the rapid development of new energy automobile industry, new energy wiring harnesses get development opportunities. The difference between a high-voltage wire harness and a low-voltage wire harness is that the high-voltage terminal tends to generate heat due to the high current passing through the terminal. As a result, the mechanical strength of the terminal and the insulation performance of the wire harness are decreased, and the oxidation of the conductor further aggravates the heating.   High voltage terminal crimping needs to consider both the reliability of the crimp and the low temperature rise of the crimp. High voltage terminals are commonly crimped Crimping, resistance welding, high frequency welding Crimping uses crimping equipment and dies to join wires and terminals together through a crimping process. High frequency welding is the use of high frequency welding machine to weld wire and terminal together. Resistance welding is the use of special resistance welding equipment to connect the wire and terminal together. Advantage Simple operation, convenient maintenance, low manufacturing cost, high operating efficiency, suitable for mass production. Shortcomings The wiring harnesses and terminals that require high current pass rate and low resistance after the connectors are connected cannot be met. Figure 1 shows the common crimping modes of large square high voltage terminals, which are hexagonal closed terminals. The advantages of ordinary crimping are obvious, but how to make ordinary crimping develop advantages and avoid disadvantages, as far as possible to reduce the resistance is particularly important. Reducing resistance means reducing heat, reducing product temperature rise, making product life and quality better.   Hazard of terminal heating After the terminal is heated, it is easy to oxidize itself and the contact surface of the conductor of the wire, generating oxide film, so that the contact resistance increases, and the increasing speed increases exponentially with the increase of temperature, further increasing the terminal temperature rise speed, and serious fire will be caused. At the same time, the elastic element of the contact structure will be annealed, the contact pressure will be reduced, and the contact resistance will be increased further. In addition, the heating will make the wire insulation layer connected to the terminal aging brittle, resulting in a decline in insulation performance, there is the risk of leakage overheating caused by fire.   As shown in Figure 2, the high voltage wiring harness has three heat sources. Terminal three heat source : Conductor Conductor: The conductor itself has a resistance. The smaller the cross-sectional area, the higher the resistance. Resistance will cause heating. Terminal compaction: insufficient compression ratio will make the conductor loose, resulting in large resistance, easy to heat. Excessive crimping is easy to cause small cross-sectional area,...

Solution 1:   According to the wiring harness configuration list of the vehicle and the wiring harness direction in the 3D wiring diagram, the measurement tools in CATIA are used to measure the required sizes of each trunk, branch, buckle, cable tie and rubber parts according to the drawing requirements of the wiring harness diagram. The 2D diagram can be arranged through reasonable design, and the outline of the wiring harness diagram can be basically determined.     Solution 2: In the process of automobile circuit design, in order to understand the actual situation of automobile electrical equipment in detail and facilitate the arrangement and connection of automobile circuit, engineers need to rely on the schematic diagram, automobile circuit diagram and application diagram. Although the diagram reflects the actual installation position of the electrical equipment on the vehicle, the criss-cross wires in the diagram increase the difficulty of reading the diagram. In order to make the circuit diagram more close to the reality, it is often necessary to draw the wiring harness installation diagram. Wiring harness diagram is the whole car circuit diagram drawn according to the actual installation position of electrical equipment on the car, mainly based on the formation of wiring harness, the drawing surface of the line is less, the expression of the connection between the components has become its main content, in order to express the color of the wire, the terminal code of the joint, often supplemented with wiring harness grouping and terminal number table and wiring harness terminal wiring table. The contents of the wiring harness First, the composition of the wire harness The automobile wiring harness diagram is composed of multiple wiring harnesses, including main line harnesses and branch wiring harnesses. The diagram should show the composition of each wire harness, how many branches there are on each harness, how many wires there are on each branch, the color of the wire and what the stripes are. Two, the length of the wire harness The length of the wire harness includes the total length of the wire harness, the length of each branch and the length of the interval between two wire ends. Three, connection code and connection mark The number of electric appliances on the car is large and complex, in order to make the connection correct, each connection point should be marked with connection code and connection mark, so as to facilitate the connection. Four, the adapter Because there are multiple wiring harnesses, wiring harnesses and wiring harnesses, branches and wiring harnesses, or branches and electrical appliances are all connected through the connector, it should be indicated how many wires on each connector, where each wire is located in the wiring hole of the connector, what kind of shape of the connector, whether the adjacent several connectors are easy to be confused. Color of wire In order to make you understand the...
