INDUSTRIAL CRIMP CALCULATOR
The Industrial Hose Crimp Calculator is part of the ACT
TM
controller package on many Custom Crimp
®
crimpers capable
of crimping industrial hoses. With a few simple measure-
ments, it takes the guess work out of industrial hose crimping
and eliminates the need for charts and graphs.
Note: Not all ACT TM controllers have the Industrial Crimp
Calculator software. Contact your sales specialist for
information on a specifi c crimper.
• Press the CRIMP TO DIAMETER button
• Press the INDUSTRIAL CRIMP Button
• Press MEASURE
• Enter the stem diameter of the fi tting. For example: If the
stem diameter is 4 inches, you would enter 4000 and the
ACT
TM
controller would supply the decimal place.
• Press either MEASURE HOSE OD or HOSE WALL
THICKNESS to toggle between the options where hose
OD is known and wall thickness measurements are
required.
• If the hose outside diameter is known or a pi tape is being
used, enter the hose O.D.
• If hose O.D. is not known,press MEASURE for wall
thickness options
• Measure the wall thickness of the hose. Press the right
arrow and take 2 more measurements of the hose wall
thickness. The Industrial Crimp Calculator will average the
three measurements.
• Measure and enter the wall thickness of the ferrule
• Next enter a compression factor. While this can vary
depending upon the specifi c hose and manufacturer, the
following guidelines are a starting point:
Standard Industrial hose (approximately 1/4 inch
wall thickness): 22%
Standard lay fl at hose: 11%
Note: Contact your hose and fi tting manufacturer for the
compression factor to use on a specifi c hose and ferrule,
• Press PROCESS and enter the die diameter if you have
not already done so.
• Select and install the correct die set for the combination of
hose and fi tting being crimped.
• Press MANUAL and proceed to crimp the hose
