Abstract:
1. A method for forming a wire harness covering having a predetermined three-dimensional geometry comprising: providing an injection mold that defines a mold cavity; positioning a wire harness within the cavity of the mold; introducing an injection molding liquid into the cavity of the mold to form a covering about the wire harness; removing the wire harness from the mold before the covering is fully cured; providing a post-molding fixture corresponding to the desired predetermined three-dimensional geometry for the wire harness covering; and positioning the wire harness with the partially-cured covering in the post-molding fixture in accordance with the desired predetermined three-dimensional geometry, wherein the wire harness is positioned in the post-molding fixture within a first predetermined time after introduction of the injection molding liquid.
