2nd Shift Assembler, Wire Harness

Key Duties and Responsibilities

• Assemble wire harnesses according to detailed specifications and blueprints, ensuring that all components are correctly installed and secured.

• Perform quality control checks throughout the assembly process tomaintainhigh standardsand prevent defects.

• Work closely with engineering and production teams to communicate any issues, provide feedback on processes, and support continuous improvement initiatives, fostering a collaborative environment to enhance productivity.

Scope and Complexity

• Work closely with team members to troubleshoot issues and implement efficient production techniques.

• Participate in team meetings to discuss progress, share insights, and support continuous improvement initiatives.

• Providetimelyfeedback and insights to address any challenges faced during production and recommend solutions.

Tools, Technology, or Equipment Used

• Crimping Tools: Used to attach connectors to the ends of wires securely. These tools ensure a strong electrical connection and are essential for assembly.

• Wire Strippers: Essential for removing the insulation from wire ends without damaging the metal conductor. These tools come invarious types, including manual and automatic.

• Soldering Irons:Utilizedfor soldering connections, ensuring a reliable and permanent bond between wire ends and connectors when crimping is not suitable.

• Multimeter: A critical tool for measuring voltage, current, and resistance in wire harnesses.It’sused to test electrical circuits and ensure that connections are functioning correctly. Specialized equipment is designed to test wire harnesses for electrical continuity and performance before they are integrated into products.Cirris’s equipmentis designedto test wire harnesses for electrical continuity and performance before they are integrated into products.

• Cable Bundling materials: Used to insulate and protect wire connections. Heat guns may also be used to shrink the tubbing around the connections securely. Includes cable ties, clips, and spiral wraps that help organize and secure the wires within the harness, preventing tangles and wear.
