3.1 SCOPE
This tooling is designed to crimp Molex MagKrimp
Products
3.2 Crimping Terminals
Before crimping, set the recommended air pressure gauge to obtain the proper crimp. See Section 2.1.
1.
Place the correct MagKrimp
terminal or splice into the punch. The punch contains a ball detent to hold
the terminal.
2.
Insert the proper combination of conductors into the terminal. Refer to the Product Specification for
numbers and types of wire.
3.
Position the terminal and wires into the center of the punch (Nest), centering the terminal barrel with the
tooling. See Figure 3-1 and 3-2.
4.
Depress the pedal on the putt pump to activate the tool. The crimping process is done in small
increments gradually allowing the press to fully crimp the terminal onto the wires. The pump will stop
when maximum pressure is reached.
5.
After the terminal is fully crimped, depress the elevated portion of the pedal to release the pump. This will
allow the tool to release.
6.
Remove the crimped assembly and inspect for proper crimp location.
