Electrical Harness Improvement for Caterpillar Loader Vehicles in Steel Mills (WPI Major Qualifying Project)
公开The goal of this Major Qualifying Project was to formulate and compare multiple new designs for the electrical harness in Caterpillar's medium wheel loader vehicles. After weighing cost and other factors, the project team suggested that Caterpillar use a harness design with stainless steel coated fiberglass sleeve for insulation material, and the combination of a Velcro-jacket with Teflon tubing for insulation structure. Students from Worcester Polytechnic Institute traveled to Wuhan, China to form a team with students from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, which together worked with engineers at Caterpillar Suzhou Co. Ltd to find design solutions.
