C200 Air Operated Wire Crimp Tool
|
|
|
|
The CM
500W
is a table top low cost crimp tool which takes a variety of dies. Air
operated, using standard factory air (5 bar min), with a pressing
capacity of up to 1200kp, this portable device allows easy and
convenient change of tools and set up for different crimp contacts.
Compare this to equipment from national manufacturers at twice the
price. The C200 is built to crimp in a linear up and down fashion and
not like a standard scissors crimp which can wear tools out quickly.
Two crimp contact positioning and holding systems are available, a
simple crimp contact star for standard contacts, or a
positioning slide for holding both the crimp contact and the wire

The positioning tool
depicted at the right is a flat star which allows the crimp contact to
be placed onto one of the blades and rotated into position between the
upper and lower die.The correct location for the leaf is set by a ball
detent. The operator places the wire into the crimp housing and steps
on the foot pedal for a quick and reliable crimp connection.
Tools for measuring the crimp height and the pull out force are also
available (see below.) For more precise locating of the crimp contact
and wire, a positioning slide is available which allows the loading of
the crimp contact and wire in front of the crimp tool. After
placing the crimp contact into the receptacle and inserting the wire
into the crimp barrel, the mechanism is moved forward to bring the
crimp barrel and wire between the upper and lower crimp die. Stepping
on the pneumatic foot pedal will actuate the crimping process. The
holding jig is on a spring loaded table which will move down slightly
as the upper crimp die brings the contact and wire into the lower crimp
die channel.

Position Blocks and Leafs
|
|
The C 200 is distinguished from
other economical
solutions for making wire crimp connections in medium volume, in that
it is provided with
a selection of tools to help the operator speed up the positioning and
increase the
accurracy of the crimping process. The positioning block with the
correct positioning leaf
aids in placing the crimp contact in position under the die set ,
leaving the operator
free from having to hold the contact near the die set.

Crimp Dies
|
|
Crimp connections are available in
open or closed
barrel designs. The closed barrel can be insulated or
uninsulated. Tools for
crimping standard wire contacts to coaxial contacts and even fiber
optics are available
from different manufacturers. Depicted below are 3 standard crimp
tools available
off the shelf for crimping open barrels, closed barrels without
insulation, and insulated
closed barrel. The C200 is designed to take standard die sets from
Ideal and other
manufacturers. If you need dies for other types of crimp connections
such as Coaxial or
Fibre Optic contacts, please get in touch with our sales representative
and we can help
source those for you

About
Crimping
|
|
A crimp
connection provides an electrical and a mechanical connection . The
measure of the quality for an electrical connection is the
conductivity. The measure of quality for the mechanical connection is
the pull out force. Both factors, the electrical conductivity and the
pull out force, depend directly on the crimp height of the conductor.
Using the crimp height caliper, this is measured from the bottom of the
claws to the highest point in the crimp.
|
|
|
Test measurements
have indicated that the optimum electrical conductivity (point E, Fig
II) and the optimum withdrawal force (point M, Fig. III) are not
related to the same crimp height. This means that a crimp with an
optimum electrical conductivity does not have the maximum achievable
withdrawal force - and vice versa.
|
|
It is necessary to
attempt to reach a compromise between the two ideal conditions (fig.
IV). This compromise point normally lies between the maximum values of
the two curves
