The wire insulation stripping length is determined by the following equation:
1 = E + A/2 + a
The correct value of a is between 0.5 and 1.0 mm.
Precautions:
(1) Take care to prevent damage to the wire strands, uneven strip lengths and
Insufficient cutting of the insulation.
(2) Strip the shielding cable as shown below:
(3) Do not excessively twist the conductors.
3. Crimping
3.1 Precautions regarding crimping
At first glance, crimping terminals appears to be very easy.
However, crimping involves the use of a press employing 1000 kg (1 ton) of
pressure. Sufficient care must be taken to prevent accidents.
Please instruct beginners to work safely regardless of how much time such
training requires. Always use safety guards so that an operator’s fingers cannot
enter the crimping die area.
The end of the outer wire becomes uneven
as the wire is twisted. Trim the wire
approximately 2 to 3 mm to make it even
