Abstract
The challenges for designing and developing automotives increase and create the need for a change in developing processes. One solution to support digital processes in today's developing processes is the 3D master method. Advantages and disadvantages of the 3D master method are analyzed in comparison to 2D drawings. The implementation of 3D master method as a digital support for the development processes of wiring harnesses is described and new methods which are needed for a complete integration of 3D master method into wiring harness development processes are presented.
