The Tesla Cybertruck revolutionized the automotive industry with its groundbreaking 48V electrical system and steering-by-wire system. Of course, if the wiring harness does not have a new way of wiring, communication methods do not have a new change, this revolutionary progress is impossible to achieve.   Tesla Motors has recently applied for a patent and is eyeing wiring harnesses. Cybertruck may look a little underwhelming, and it doesn't feel as good as Musk previously said it would.   However, Cybertruck's advanced technology did not disappoint. One of them is the 48V low-voltage electrical system(low-voltage electrical wire harness) used in production vehicles for the first time. By dramatically improving and simplifying the electrical architecture, Tesla will be able to build the next generation of electric vehicles at a better cost.     Tesla has announced that Cybertruck's cabling architecture will be significantly simplified compared to previous Tesla electric vehicles. Tesla achieves this by using multiple local controllers connected to a high-speed communication bus instead of connecting each electrical component to a central controller. To understand this situation, it is necessary to talk about traditional vehicles. Typically, every sensor and electrical component on a vehicle must be connected to a central controller and low-voltage system to obtain power. Sometimes, this means complex parts require a lot of wire. Let's take doors for example. It may contain sensors that signal to the car's computer that the car is on, off, or tilted. The same is true for Windows, which have buttons that trigger opening and closing. These switches are connected to the vehicle's controller, which in turn is connected to the window actuator to lower or raise the glass.   That's when we add speakers, airbags, cameras... You'll understand why the harness is so messy. Wires in modern vehicles extend for many kilometers, adding complexity, cost, and weight. To make matters worse, building and installing them is mostly done by hand. These are expensive and time-consuming processes that Tesla wants to eliminate.   That's why it came up with the idea of a distributed controller. Vehicles will be equipped with many local controllers for various functions, rather than a central unit.   Distributed controller For example, a door controller is responsible for putting Windows, speakers, lights, mirrors, and other components into the electrical input before it can work. In this case, the wires are short and can be fully contained within the door assembly. The doors will then be connected to the vehicle's data bus with just two wires, which also provide power to the electrical components. All the complex functions of a door can be achieved with just two wires, compared to more than a dozen in a conventional car, which is what Tesla has done with the Cybertruck.   The electric pickup uses a steer-by-wire system that requires a...

The challenge of wiring harness supply reflects global logistics     Wiring harnesses became an industry hot spot when the war in Ukraine caused a sudden shortage, but the challenges facing the industry go well beyond the events of 2022.   Due to advanced driver assistance features and the already severe lack of automation and high chip requirements in manufacturing, increasing complexity makes automotive wiring harness production one of the most critical development areas in the industry.   Auto Wire harness     Increasing sensor technology and driver assistance features in cars are making them safer and providing drivers with peace of mind.   Autopilot mode is on the rise in popularity, but even relatively basic cameras to help with parking and infotainment displays can make wiring harps more complex and require more high-speed data cables. Electrification adds extra complexity by introducing battery and brake regeneration management, which means more computing power to make the car as efficient as possible. The more wires and structures are needed, the greater the challenge of supplying the parts and actually making the harness.       Automation Automation in harness manufacturing comes from two sources: the need to make production lines and harness manufacturing processes more efficient, and on the vehicle side, the increasing need for sensors and computers to manage advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).       Although fully autonomous vehicles are still a long way from production, consumers now expect a variety of driver assistants in their cars. Features such as lidar or other camera technology increase the need for a new data line that must be high-speed enough to provide information in real time.   Companies such as Aptiv are providing the technology for smart cars. Do Sohn, Aptiv's global director of innovation, will speak at the Automotive Wiring Harness Conference in Detroit in October. Also, manufacturers need to look for new technologies, such as fully automatic stranding. Simon Abegg, director of twist machines in Komax's product group, will detail the new robotic process, even for 0.13mm wires. Bob Potock, Zuken's vice president of marketing, will also talk about how digital visualization can help set up wiring harnesses and streamline processes.   Connection     The increasing complexity of wiring harness design, the need for faster cables, and the increasing amount of data being transferred in the car mean that the speed at which data can be moved is important. Frederic Holtzman and Johannes Schmid argue that copper wiring is an essential part of this, not a limitation, and he will show how wiring has been able to reach 100G in automotive wiring harnesses, but the problem lies more in semiconductors. Trying to make the most of lightweight wiring will be key to driving vehicle automation.   Electrification     As the auto ...

  What Gauge Is Trailer Wire?   Aichie Tech Electronic makes trailer cables that are very durable and soft even for cold winter use. Because our sheath thickness is thicker than other factories. So our cables are resistant to friction and can move freely. Our trailer harness is also oil resistant.   The specifications of the trailer cable you choose will depend on the type of trailer and the application of the trailer cable. Suppose you are buying trailer cables for a 7-blade RV connector. In general, for 7-way trailer wire connectors, experts recommend using wire 12AWG for red or black (power) wire, white (ground) wire, and blue (brake power) wire. However, 16 gauge trailer wire is the minimum recommended for the remaining connections, including brown (tail light) wire, yellow (left turn/brake) wire, green (right turn/brake) wire, and purple (reverse light) trailer  cable.   However, if you want to connect different types of applications, your choice of trailer wiring will change. For example, if you have a 8 foot x 35 trailer and you intend to place heavy objects on it, you may need heavier trailer cables to support the application. As a general rule, a project like this usually requires a 16 awg trailer wire. However, if the trailer is longer, you may need a heavier wire gauge - for example, maybe a 14 gauge trailer wire will solve the problem, or maybe even a 12 gauge specification might be called for.   Now turn to slightly different trailer cable application. If you have a 10-foot camper and are working on projects such as license plate lights and wiring of two brake lights, your trailer cable size will be different from the first two applications. In general, if you use LED lights, then a 16awg trailer cable should be fine.   But some types of lights use more power than leds, or your lights may be more than a "typical" trailer. In this case, your choice of trailer cable must also be changed. In this case, a heavy duty trailer cable is recommended. For example, on a 7-way connector, running more lights than usual, or lighting multiple lights at once requires 14/7 trailer wire or even thicker wires, such as 12/7 AWG.   How to install trailer cable?   The general process for installing trailer cables is the same/similar for all applications, regardless of the trailer wire size you use. However, the specifics vary when it comes to the number of connectors involved in trailer wiring.   To correctly install 4-way trailer cable, you can refer to the following wire connection coding:   Ground = White Tail/Running lights = Brown Left turn/Brake = Yellow Right turn/Brake = Green   Note that when using a 4-wire tow line, the left/brake light (yellow) line connector is marked with "L", while the right/brake (green) tow line connector is marked with "R" it.       However, when using a 7-core trailer ...

Busbar concept: The busbar refers to the use of a high -electricity copper and aluminum material for transmission of electrical energy and distribution of power capabilities. The total wire of the power station or the transformation station conveyor power can be used. Through it, the electric energy output from the generator, a transformer or a rectifier is transported to each user or other substations.     In the power system, the busbar is connected to each load branch circuit in the power distribution device, which plays a role in gathering, allocating, and transmitting electrical energy. According to the appearance and structure, the bus is roughly divided into the following three categories: 1. Hard busbar: Including rectangular bus, circular busbar, tube -shaped busbar, etc. 2. Soft bus: Including aluminum twisted wires, copper twisted wires, steel core aluminum twisted cables, diameter hollow wires, etc. 3. Close bus: Including the bulk box, the division of the busbar, etc.   Performance characteristics of energy storage cabinet busbar:   The busbar is used in copper or aluminum busbar, with large current density, small resistance, small skin effect, and no need to use. Small voltage reduction means that energy loss is small, and ultimately saving users' investment.   For the cable, because the cable core is multiple copper wires, the root area is larger than that of the busbar of the same current level. And its "skin effect" is serious, reducing the current rated value, increasing the voltage drop, and easy to heat. The energy loss of the wire is great and easy to aging..   Looking at the drawing cabinet drawing, you must first be familiar with the icons of each electrical component, because there are many multiple devices in the power distribution cabinet, and the physical objects and icons of the component can be seen one by one. The role and constituent principle are better, and it is more helpful for the icons. You can search on Google to have a lot of web pages. Bookstores also have books: books such as primary electrical appliances, you can find it.   The installation requirements of the power distribution board (box) are: the power distribution board (box) application is made of non -flammable materials; the production place and office with less dangerous electric shock can be installed with an open power distribution board; Poor processing workshops, casting, forging, heat treatment, boiler room, woodworking room and other places should be installed with closed -type cabinets; in dangerous operating places with conductive dust or produce flammable and explosive gas, they must be installed with closed or explosion -proof type Electric facilities; power distribution boards (boxes) of each electrical component, instrument, switch and cables should be arranged neatly, firm installation, and convenient operation; Generally, 1.2 ～ 1.5m; non -obstacles w...

The concept of smart home originated very early, but there has been no concrete architectural case. It was not until 1984 that the United Technologies Building System It was only when System applied the concept of informationization and integration of building equipment to the CityPlaceBuilding in Hartford, Connecticut, that the first "smart building" appeared. It was the beginning of the world's rush to build smart homes.     Home Automation home automation refers to the use of microprocessing electronic technology to integrate or control electrical and electronic products or systems in the home, such as lighting, coffee ovens, computer equipment, security systems, heating and cooling systems, video and audio systems. Home automation systems mainly use a central microprocessor to receive information from relevant electronic and electrical products (changes in external environmental factors, such as the sun rising or setting light changes, etc.), and then send appropriate information to other electronic and electrical products through established procedures. The microprocessor must control the home's electrical products through a number of interfaces, such as keyboards, touch screens, buttons, computers, telephones, remote controls, etc. The consumer can send signals to, or receive signals from, the central microprocessor.   Home automation is an important system of smart home, in the presence of smart home just, home automation and even equa...

IPC-WHMA-620 Industry StandardThis is the appearance acceptance standard for cable assembly negotiated by the Cable Assembly Association and the Electronic Connection Products Committee. If there is no standard for process inspection and finished product inspection, IPC/WHMA-A-620 can be used as the inspection standard document for products alone. It specifies process control or defective products that allow repair/rework. This information suggests that it needs to be improved by statistical process control plan (refer to IPC-9191).   Although IPC/WHMA-A-620 is an industry standard, it does not cover all designs. However, it provides process standards for general products. If non-universal or special processes are used, a unique acceptance standard can be established. This unique acceptance standard should include customer requirements or promises, and should include acceptable standards for each feature. If possible, new standards or special standards for products should be submitted to the IPC Committee for standard improvement form, so that the IPC Committee can update the version.

The connector industry set a new sales record in 2022   Connection industry sales volume(2022) The connection device industry increased +7.8% in 2022, and global sales reached $84.1 billion US dollars. This is a new industry sales record. The following table shows the sales performance in 2022 according to the geographical area.   It is worth noting that North America achieved sales growth better than China in 2022. In fact, North America has performed better than China in the past five years. China may continue to exceed North America in terms of sales growth.       First of all, China's labor costs have risen, creating opportunities for other countries to compete in Western investment. Secondly, China's "zero -new crown policy" may lead to the closure of some companies.     The effect of currency and inflation The US dollar strongly strengthened in 2022, reducing the actual growth of the industry. Calculated in the US dollar, the industry has achieved +7.8% of sales growth, but the calculation of local currency has only achieved +2.0% growth. The following table explains this.   Considering that the global inflation rate between 2022 is between 8% and 10%, the industry implements prices in the same range. Measured by the unit, the connectioner industry may not grow.   As of the release, the financial performance of the year in 2022 has not been announced, but we believe that the rise in prices can offset the rise in raw materials and labor costs. Interestingly, we expect that the profitability of the connector in 2022 from good to excellent.     Healthy backlog of Connector in 2023  The preliminary voltage voltage order in 2023 was $ 22.983 billion or $14.8 billion weeks of sales. In 2021 years, the average sales of our quarterly sales were US $23.202.2 billion. Therefore, we should have enough backlog orders to achieve the flat or low -digit sales in the first quarter.     Please note that Amphenol and TE Connectivity predict that the first quarter of 2023 sales were -2.8% and -2.7%, respectively. Bishop forecast sales growth +0.5%. We believe that the industry may do better than these predictions, because: The results of Amphenol and TE are usually exceeded expected. The backlog is enough to grow in the first quarter.   The following shows the predictions of Amphenol, TE and the industry in the first quarter of 2023.    In the fourth quarter of the connector industry, sales increased +2.0%. This is lower than 2022 +7.8%, which indicates that demand is slowing. In addition, this trend is confirmed that amphenol has achieved +7.0% growth in the fourth quarter, while the whole year is +16.1%, and the fourth quarter of TE achieved +0.6% growth and +9.1% throughout the year. Both strong indicators indicate that the demand is slow. The forecast of Amphenol and TE's negative growth in the first quarter further proves the economic slowdown.   Consensus is t...
