◎大體上,電纜線束仍繼續用手工製造,例如:
- routing wires through sleeves,
會因為套管的大小、用途的不同,變換繞的方式。
- taping with fabric tape, in particular on branch outs from wire strands,
用毛質膠帶綑綁,尤其是在電纜的分岔。
- crimping terminals onto wires, particularly for so-called double crimps (two wires into one terminal),
把端子的末端裝在電線上面,尤其將兩條套在一起(兩條或兩條以上)。
- inserting one sleeve into another,
把一個管套插入另外一個,
- fastening strands with tape, clamps or cable ties.
用膠帶、夾具,把電纜綑緊在一起。
◎然而,有些地方可以自動化,例如:
- cutting individual wires (cutting machine),
切割電纜(切割的機器),
crimping terminals onto one or both sides of the wire, 在線上末端裝上端子,
partial plugging of wires prefitted with terminals into connector housings (module), 把裝上端子的線插入護套裡面,
soldering of wire ends (solder machine), 焊接電線的末端,
twisting wires. 扭綑電線。
