Five kinds of packaging materials commonly used in cables

-
Cables are often used in a variety of environments, and their outer packaging materials provide additional insulation to prevent wear, chemicals, electromagnetic interference, fluids, heat, moisture and other undesirable factors,  material Wire harness protection in a variety of configurations is available for  according to color factorssize and size. This article mainly introduces five kinds of outer packaging materials commonly used in cables.

Five kinds of packaging materials commonly used in cables

Heat shrinkable tube
The heat-shrink tubing is tightly wrapped around the wire, making the rough surface smooth, providing thermal and electrical insulation. The adhesive backing tube provides a strong seal to prevent moisture and chemicals from corroding the wire harness assembly, requiring the use of a heat gun, which increases the time of production and may also be difficult to apply to the entire seat belt.
Casing
Casing expandable or packageable sleeves are easy to install and highly flexible for fast, easy wire binding, woven polyethylene sleeves are popular because they are durable and lightweight, even at low temperatures The direction remains completely flexible, allowing the cable assembly and harness to be bent repeatedly without damage.
Spiral wound tube
Spiral-wound tubes allow cables and electronic harnesses to enter and exit the outer packaging at multiple points, and are available in a variety of color options for easy identification. For example, orange is typically used for high pressure applications.
Split loom tube
The split loom tube is generally cut from the side downwards for easy insertion of the cable and the electronic harness. After the installation, the slit is closed, no need for heat shrinkage or dispensing end, thereby reducing production time. The plastic tube is usually made of polyamide, polyethylene or Made of polypropylene, however, handling it without compressing the wiring can be cumbersome.
Tape
Tape single-coated pressure-sensitive tapes are available in a variety of backing materials and pressure sensitive adhesives, while PVC is the most commonly used tape material, but other materials, including fabrics, felts, foams and foils, can be used. The flexibility of the harness was be Minimized.

  SAE J1939 (hereinafter referred to as J1939) is the recommended standard of the American Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). It is controlled and communicated by the "Truck and Bus Electrical & Electronics Committee" (Track & Bus Electrical & Electronics Committee). Developed and written by the Track & Bus Control and Communications Network Subcommittee. J1939 has become a recognized industry standard and choice for commercial vehicle diagnostics and data communication heavy, off-highway, truck, bus, ship propulsion, power generation, industrial pumping, construction, and material handling machinery. J1939 is a high-level protocol network (CAN) based on Controller Area. It is widely used by the diesel engine industry to provide diagnostic data such as vehicle engine speed, temperature, oil temperature, exhaust emissions, and other customizable options. J1939 connectors are divided into black and green rubber cores, but do you know the difference between t...

Benefits of overmolded connectors and wiring harnesses?

What is overmolding? In short, overmolding is an injection molding process in which two or more materials are used to combine a harness wire and a connector to form a single part, and the cable assembly is placed in a mold. In this process, the first material substrate will be covered by other materials. The overmolding process requires the use of insert molding (single injection) or multiple injection molding techniques to cover rigid plastic parts with TPU layers or other overmolding materials. So what are the benefits of the connector and harness overmolding process? Benefits of overmolding connectors and harnesses: 1. Increase the flexibility of the cable harness exit so that most of the movement between the cable harness and the connector occurs at the cable harness exit. 2. Provide abrasion resistance, impact resistance or impact resistance. 3. Fix the cable assembly by sealing the assembly in plastic. 4. Provide 360 degree strain relief and increase tension. 5. Cr...

​Cars are equipped with diagnostics tool or obd-ii ports

Modern cars have the capacity of a few computers, are tooled with software that contains millions of lines of programming code and produce gigabytes of data, but they are still different from connected cars. ​ A smart vehicle is able to optimize its performance to reduce fuel consumption, show the best path to follow taking into account current traffic and weather conditions, detect errors in the engine and collect information data to negotiate lower insurance rates. Most cars and light trucks are equipped with on-board diagnostics or an OBD II port that provides access to data from the engine control unit (ECU). To get the information you need to plug in an external device. The OBD-II specifications provide a standardized hardware interface - a female 16-pin (2x8) J1962 connector, so a single external device can be used for most car models. It also should have an Internet connection to transfer the collected data. OBD-II connects to the Internet, and generally needs to use th...
