A wire harness assembly system is disclosed. The wire harness assembly system includes a locking mount for receiving a wire routing accessory. The locking mount includes a main body with an upper portion, a base flange, and a lower portion. The lower portion includes a locating shaft extending from the base flange. The locating shaft has keyed members positioned opposite each other. The locating shaft and the keyed members of the locking mount are positioned in keyed holes in a grid tile. The locking mount is rotated to a locked position in the grid tile to secure the locking mount and the wire routing accessory mounted thereto.

A device configured for making a wire aerial of an element of radio frequency identification (RFID), which device comprises: a main body, extending along a longitudinal direction and having a longitudinal seat adapted to house a wire; a putting-wire head arranged at one end of the main body and constrained to the main body, the putting-wire head comprising: a guide element adapted to engage the wire and to deposit it onto a substrate, and which guide wire has a translational degree of freedom along the longitudinal direction with respect to the main body; and a wire-restraining element adapted to selectively abut on the guide element, wherein the putting-wire head is adapted to assume a first rest configuration,
wherein the restraining element is abutted onto the guide element and the wire is retained between the restraining element and the guide element, and a second operative configuration.

A component of an ion optical device is manufactured. The component comprises aligned first and second electrode sets. A first material is machined to provide a part-machined first electrode set that comprises the first electrode set attached to a frame part of the first material. A second material is machined to provide a part-machined second electrode set that comprises the second electrode set attached to a frame part of the second material. The component of the ion optical device is assembled by aligning the part-machined first and second electrode sets. Subsequent to aligning the part-machined first and second electrode sets, the part-machined first electrode set is further machined to separate the first electrode set from the frame part of the first material and the part-machined second electrode set is further machined to separate the second electrode set from the frame part of the second material.
