The wiring harness production in the automotive sector is still characterized by a high proportion of manual work. In particular, the process of taping the wire harness on the assembly boards with conventional adhesive tape is a very time-consuming manual work step. In order to automate this, various methods have already been tested and one of the most promising is the dosing process. Thereby a nozzle moves along the routed cables and covers them with silicone rubber. In order to apply this process successfully in practice, it is particularly necessary to sheat variable wire harness geometries that differ in terms of their diameter and composition. In scope of this work, a nozzle was developed, which can be infinitely adjusted to different cable strands using an iris diaphragm mechanism. The fused deposition modelling (FDM) process was used for fast production and testing of various nozzle construction. In addition to various cable harnesses, concepts were developed and validated in order to cover nodes or branch points with the dosing process. All experiments were carried out in the form of model tests in terms of their applicability in practice.
