The Master Dies are greased at the point of manufacture after final testing. This should not be relied on to protect the crimper
during initial use. Prior to commissioning, the machine should be greased according to operating Instructions.
Greasing of the master dies is critical to ensuring a long and trouble-free life for the crimper. Greasing frequency should be
increased when operating in aggressive or high volume environments.
Greasing
Running-In
Recommended run-in period for a new machine is 20 crimps.
It is recommended the greasing process is carried out at least twice a day, more if the machine is in constant use.
The purpose of frequent greasing is to ensure that there is always enough grease between the sliding surfaces.
Due to the surface pressure the grease sinks in to the metal pores ensuring good sliding properties for the machine’s lifetime.
During the run-in period grease the machine after every 100 crimps.
