Process description
4 1 Process flow
The ePC 01 is used for professional and reliable closure
of oeTIKeR clamps and low-profile clamps.
To do this, an ear or the closure hook of the low-profile clamp
(1) is inserted between the pincer jaws (2).
subsequently, the closure process on the Trigger Unit is first
released by depressing and holding down the safety lever (4)
and is then initiated via the sTaRT button (3).
The safety lever should be released after each completed
closure (but is required every 20 closures).
The pincer jaws crimp the ear (5), using the preset force.
When using clamps, the preset value is used so that the
clamp is hooked in.
The Control Unit monitors, qualifies and quantifies the crimp-
ing process. Various interfaces allow the measured variables
as well as oK/noK conditions to be displayed.
