This review investigates the latest trends in separation technologies regarding hard-to-
recycle thin cables, specifically in the form of end-of-life wire harnesses (WHs). The cables in …

Within the paradigm shift of electrification and autonomous driving, the automotive wiring
harness has evolved to a safety-critical system, as it is responsible for the energy and …

Wire harness assembly is normally a manual assembly process that poses ergonomic
challenges. As a consequence of the rapidly expanding electrification of vehicles and …

The wire harness assembly process is a complicated manufacturing activity, which is
becoming more complex because of the evolving nature of mechatronic and electronic …

In the current automotive industry, human operators perform wire harness assembly
manually, which causes significant quality, productivity, safety, and ergonomic problems …

Many assembled products contain parts that are not rigid, and there is a large variety of such
parts, which might be as different as cables, sheet metals, plastic covers, or foams. The …

Wire harnesses contribute a significant portion of the weight on the automotive platform. In-
mold electronics provide weight reduction pathways by integrating the conductive traces into …

Products and assets are becoming increasingly “smart”, eg, mechatronic, electronic, or cyber-
physical. In the lack of fully reliable wireless solutions, extensive wiring and wire bundling …

This research addresses the challenge of large/complex deformation in the shape control
tasks of Deformable Linear Objects (DLO). We propose a collaborative approach using two …

The presence of Deformable Linear Objects (DLOs) such as wires, cables or ropes in our
everyday life is massive. However, the applicability of robotic solutions to DLOs is still …
