General Description
1.1
Description
The 69002-5000 (240V AC Version) and the 69002-
5001(120V AC Version) TM42 Termination Machine is
an electrically operated, single-cycle, flywheel press.
It is designed to provide an effective method of
terminating a wide range of Molex side-feed crimp
terminals to pre-stripped discrete wire and cable.
Production flexibility is obtained through the use of
interchangeable modular terminator dies. These dies
are inexpensive because, unlike a modular applicator,
all crimp height and terminal feed adjustments are
located in the press. The TM42 is ideally suited for
mid-volume, semi-automatic operation.
The TM42 will complete one crimping cycle with each
depression of the foot pedal. Safe operation is
provided by an interlock switch that renders the press
inoperative if the safety guard is removed.
