The wiring problem automotive manufacturers can't ignore As electrification reshapes what happens on the factory floor, Linquan Technology's Boming Zhu argues carmakers must rethink harness design, data flow and tooling long before assembly lines can be meaningfully automated. Ilkhan Ozsevim
Has the wire harness finally become robot-ready? Wire harness production remains one of the most manual areas in automotive manufacturing. Automated pre-assembly, zonal E/E architectures and new product designs are beginning to change that. Timo Gilgen
How the harness is being reinvented Zonal architectures, greater automation and continuous data flows are changing not only the wire harness itself, but also the way it is produced. At the same time, pressure on cost, quality and flexibility is increasing. Timo Gilgen
From Architecture to Assembly: Industrialising the E/E Backbone of the Software-Defined Vehicle Every OEM roadmap now assumes centralised compute, zonal E/E architecture, 800V electrification and high-speed in-vehicle data networks.
