4.2 Wiring Harness Development
From park distance control system to spacecraft control: wherever electrical or electronic
components are used to team up for the realization of advanced functions,
leads, cables or complex wire harnesses are employed. Be it a small vehicle or a
truck, a high-tech locomotive, an ocean liner or a space lab: the current must flow
safely and in an orderly fashion. The planning and manufacturing of wire harnesses
involves a large number of enterprises. Therefore, models for the cooperation among
suppliers, with controlled data flow, adjustment of levels of information and comprehensive
standardization are essential factors for success.
Whereas in the case of rail cars or commercial vehicles, in which the total number of
individual leads is a challenge; the mass production of passenger cars requires special
solutions for the extensive variety of optional equipment available. Individual
vehicle documentation may make sense in the first instance, but it does not make
sense in the second. In vehicle manufacturing, an ever increasing number of innovations
are being realized by means of electrical components and electronics, with onboard
supply systems (control and diagnostic) becoming more and more important
for new solutions. At the same time, the quality of these systems has become a decisive
factor in the reliability of vehicles as a whole. For passenger cars alone, due to
the increasing importance of on-board electronics, the number of cable harnesses has
increased fourfold since the 1990’s.
• EB Cable is the perfect solution for system engineering.
4.3 Power Generation and Distribution
Neither our society nor commerce as a whole is conceivable or sustainable without
energy supply. Be it manufacturing, administration, hospitals or private households
– we are all dependent on it. And the energy market has in the last decade become
more and more international. Therefore the big power and distribution companies
increasingly rely on international standards.
Because of this global dependence, facilities for generating and distributing electrical
energy are subject to particularly high quality standards. This also applies to their
documentation. Always up-to-date confirmed data is indispensable for maintenance
and remodeling, and a precondition for these plants to be quickly and reliably repaired
in case of an emergency. Due to the long life expectancy of these facilities,
documentation meeting the highest quality standards is indispensable because constructional
changes are frequently carried out by firms that were not involved in the
initial construction of the original plant.
AUCOTEC AG has for many years been the market leader in Germany for engineering
tools used by the operating companies, and their suppliers, in the power distribution
industry. In Slovakia and the Czech Republic the AUCOTEC EVU module
is the sole tool used.
• EB Power is the solution for automation engineering in power generation and
distribution.
