DESCRIPTION
The AMP 3K and AMP 5K Terminating Machines were designed to be used as stand-alone semi-automatic
bench units. They are assembled with metric hardware.
These machines accept a wide variety of miniature (mini) quick-change applicators (including the TE Ocean
Applicator), thus providing a great selection of terminals for many applications.
Older TE applicators use different feed cams depending on the machine stroke. Refer to Figure 2 for
changeover cams required to run 1 1/8-in. stroke cams (for AMP-O-LECTRIC* Model "K" terminating
machines) and 1 5/8-in. stroke cams (for Model "T" and Model "G" Terminating machines) in the machines.
