Wire Harness Color Detection System for Wiring Sequence and Insertion Checks WM-815

Name: Wire Harness Color Detection System for Wiring Sequence and Insertion Checks WM-815
Brand: Wiromac
SKU: WM-815

CE Certified HS Code 9031.80 < 0.2 s per harness

The WM-815 is a benchtop vision system that inspects finished wire harnesses for color sequence, wire position and terminal insertion depth in under 0.2 seconds per piece. Drop the connectorized harness into the inspection frame — placement can be loose — and the camera triggers automatically, flags any wire out of sequence, shows the faulty position on screen and sounds an NG alarm. It reads colors correctly even on insulation printed with characters, handles single-row connectors up to 50 mm wide, draws under 35 W and weighs just 10.7 kg.

Key features

Catches wrong-color and swapped-position wires before the harness ships — the screen shows exactly which cavity failed, so rework takes seconds
Judges whether each terminal is fully seated in the housing, the defect that slips past visual inspection most often
No jig discipline needed — operators drop the harness in the frame any way round and auto-trigger fires when it sits stable, keeping cycle time at the 0.2-second mark
Embedded low-power design under 35 W with no PC tower to maintain, small enough (10.7 kg) to sit at any assembly bench

What it processes

End-of-line color-sequence check on connectorized harnesses up to 50 mm connector width
Verifying manual insertion work on multi-color appliance and automotive looms
Inline NG gating via I/O signal to conveyors or indicator stacks

Suited for: fast color-sequence and insertion-depth checks on single-row connectorized harnesses up to 50 mm wide — the last look before packing, at 0.2 seconds a piece. Not suited for: electrical testing or multi-row connectors — double-row housings run on the WM-816 two-row sequence detector, while continuity and crimp strength need the electrical and pull testers in our wire harness testing category.

Unsure it reads your colors and stripes? Send 5–10 of your actual harnesses and we program and run them on camera before you order — including your worst printed-on insulation.

WM-815 — common questions

What defects does the WM-815 actually catch?

Three kinds — a wire whose color is in the wrong cavity, a wire in the wrong position, and a terminal that is not inserted to full depth. On failure it displays the faulty wire position and sounds an audible NG alarm, and the FM-9A output can signal your line control.

Do operators have to place the harness precisely?

No. The harness can be placed in the inspection frame loosely — the system self-triggers once the material sits stable and reads the sequence in under 0.2 seconds, so there is no fixture-loading skill to train.

What can it not test?

It is an optical system — it does not measure continuity, shorts, insulation resistance or crimp pull force, and it reads single-row connectors up to 50 mm wide only. For mechanical crimp strength, pair it with the pull testers in our wire harness testing category.
