Contest Brief
On this page, you find the Wurth Skedd connectors:
https://www.we-online.com/en/components/products/REDFIT_IDC_SKEDD?ajax= (you can find STEP files there)
Cables are mounted to these connectors with special pliers, they are crimped into the upper side of these connectors, as you can see here:

The special pliers are really expensive, but it is possible to use parallel pliers like this:

...and a little tool that you should design.
In the project files, you can find the sketch "sketch.png", which shows, what I imagine.
The sketch shows holes in a POM block for 4- and 6-pin versions of this connector, you should design holes for 4...12 pin connectors.
Use standard drills for the holes and make the outer holes for the connector's positioning pins 2.2mm and 2.6mm in diameter, that's just a tiny bit bigger than these pins. The holes for the metal contacts should be 2.2mm in diameter.
Don't make the holes through, but make them 3mm deeper as the need to be, with a tolerance of -0mm +5mm.
The travel of the parallel pliers is long enough.
Create a STEP model first for checking and after my "okay", you can create a manufacturing drawing in dxf format.
At the end, I would also like to get the original CAD file (Creo, Solidworks, whatever you're using).
After you finished the STEP model, make a dummy entry. Upon this, I will contact you and you can upload the STEP file in the chat, because this is not possible in the entry.
I want to check all files before awarding the winner.
Good luck!
