According to all respondents, the implementation of transformation needs, such as the automation of wiring harness production and assembly of the wiring harness in the vehicle, the inclusion of requirements from the circular economy or the technological influence of highly automated driving on functional safety, has a decisive influence on future developments along the entire on-board network value chain.
There are numerous transformation potentials from adjacent industries (e.g. control cabinet construction) and scientific research areas that can have an impact on the value chain of the wiring harness.
In order to leverage this potential, it is important to compare the needs of the industry with solutions from neighboring industries and research results and thus prepare for a possible transfer - this is where the Transformation Hub Cable Harness comes in with its work to act as an information hub in the cable harness industry.
The findings from the Trend radar also serve to further develop the activities of the Transformation Hub Management Set. Additional event formats such as excursions, workshops as well as in-depth online events and other technology challenges will be implemented.
All contents and findings of the trend radar are summarized in a booklet for Download to disposal
