A wire harness manufacturing method includes manufacturing a standard-size electric wire in which a terminal-equipped electric wire which is connected to a terminal is manufactured in lot units for each type, clamping the terminal-equipped electric wire to a pair of electric wire clips, dispensing a plurality of terminal-equipped electric wires respectively clamped by the electric wire clamps to electric wire holders, storing the plurality of the terminal-equipped electric wires temporarily in the electric wire holders, locking the both end portions of the terminal-equipped electric wire to an electric wire clip tool respectively and aggregating an electric wire group configuring a wire harness at the electric wire clip tool to form a harness set, and detaching the end portions of the terminal-equipped electric wire from the harness set and inserting the terminal connected and fixed into a terminal accommodating chamber of a connector housing.

Wire harness manufacturing method and wire harness manufacturing device

A wire harness manufacturing system includes an assembly line that manufactures a wire harness and one or a plurality of supply devices that prepares to supply component magazines in which components of the wire harness are loaded in a holder to the assembly line. Each of the supply devices is capable of preparing a plurality of the component magazines which are different according to types of the components. The component magazines are capable of delivering from the supply devices to at least a part of the series of assembly steps in a state of being independent of both the assembly line and the supply device.
