A profound lesson of technological history is that a mechanical thing’s purpose and function (i.e., how it achieves this purpose) may diverge over time. The automobile is a good example of this. Its purpose—moving people from place to place—hasn’t changed in 200 years, even though its function continues to evolve.
For consumers, this evolution has led to an increasing number of electronic features in the typical car, and the need for many more wire harnesses. To meet this challenge, harness manufacturers use the best equipment available for processing wire.
