This live, four-day virtual class is built for both mechanical and electrical engineers. Harness routing with dedicated CAD commands is a skill most designers never learn, and having it makes you the engineer who can work across an entire vehicle or aircraft program, not just your own discipline.
You’ll learn the complete workflow inside Siemens NX, done solely in NX with no need to create XML files through NX Capital: starting from a wiring diagram, qualifying connectors, building routing paths, using the connection wizard, and joining connectors into a complete harness. You’ll work hands-on from day one using provided files, then apply everything to a real industry-grade example: a multi-branch harness routed and managed inside a 38U cabinet. From there, you’ll flatten the harness into a complete formboard drawing, the exact document handed to a harness manufacturer to build the physical harness.
This class is taught by Hamza Ali, a mechanical design engineer with real experience at Thales, Saab, EDGE Group, and Calidus, who has routed hundreds of harnesses and knows the industry’s best practices firsthand, including how to set buffer and safe length values, update a harness after a routing change, and replace a connector without rebuilding the design.
The skills you learn in this class are directly applicable across major industries, including aerospace and defense, data center and server rack infrastructure, automotive, and many more.
