Ms. Huong Nguyen from the University of Nuremberg-Erlangen / FAPS presented at the trend outlook on June 15, 2023 in the Wiring Harness Transformation Hub approaches to automation in wiring harness production. Her focus is on two aspects. Firstly, she discusses the possibilities of knowledge transfer from the aviation and control cabinet manufacturing industries in order to integrate best practices and findings into wiring harness production. Secondly, she presents concrete approaches on how robotics, machine learning and additive manufacturing technologies can be used effectively to increase efficiency in wiring harness production. These multidisciplinary approaches underline the efforts to use the latest technologies and explore innovative ways to optimize production processes.
