DESCRIPTION
The AMP 5K/40, 5K/30, and GII CE Terminating Machines with a DCCM installed were designed to be used as
stand-alone semi- automatic bench units that cut the wire when there is a defective crimp; thereby severing a
questionable crimp before it can be withdrawn from the machine.
They are assembled with metric hardware.
NOTE
Measurements are in metric units [followed by U.S. customary units in brackets] unless otherwise indicated. Some commercial
items may contain non-metric hardware.
2.1.
Functional Description
These machines are equipped with an automatic wire chopper that works in conjunction with the Crimp Quality
Monitor [CQM] to immediately remove terminations that do not meet the requirements for a good crimp as set
in the CQM. These machines have two important differences from the standard machines that are described
below:
1. The
Defective Crimp Cut Module
is a pneumatically operated chopping blade that is mounted to the
front of the terminator’s base plate
. The DCCM cutting blade is actuated when the pneumatic solenoid
connected to DCCM receives a signal from the CQM. The DCCM is hinged and can pivot away from
the machine baseplate to provide more access when installing, adjusting or inspecting an applicator.
Figure 2 Detail A shows the DCCM Unit, Figure 2 Detail B shows the DCCM solenoid that is attached
to the left side of the machine and identifies the air supply hose.

2. The
Guard and Guard Insert
on machines equipped with a DCCM are designed specifically for use
on these terminators. The guard insert is adjustable to bring the opening in line with the DCCM
window. The main guard is interlocked to the control system of the machine preventing the machine
from operating with the main guard open.
DANGER
Do not operate the machine without the guards or guard insert installed. Operating the machine without all guards in place
could result in serious injury of the operator.
