Operator
Technique
Crimp location on the contact, and depth of crimp, are entirely TAC
dependent. The operator only need select (if applicable) the proper
"G" dimension setting and initiate the crimp cycle by inserting the
conductor into the contact and depressing it by applying slight pres-
sure. A conductor whose strands are not visible through the contact
inspection hole (if applicable) was probably not stripped to proper
length.
Operators usually get the "feel" of the machine within 15 minutes of
use. Noise generated by the device is minimal; operators have been
observed to develop a rhythm of insertion and withdrawal based on the
unique sounds generated by the device. Crimp rates exceeding 2000
crimps per hour have been attained.
