DESCRIPTION
The Tri-Star Technologies Portable Automatic Contact Crimper, hereina£ter
referred to as PORTA-TAC, is a device which automatically crimps loose
electrical contacts that have been pre-loaded into a magazine. Both shouldered
and shoulderless type contacts may be re-loaded manually or automatically
using other Tri-Star equipments.
A specific PORTA-TAC can be converted to accommodate a different contact
by changing only a few components (by the user). Variable
"G" dimension
permits crimping of three different wire gauges for a given contact.
The PORTA-TAC is light-weight and may be used in any work area that has
85PSIG air pressure and 11OV/220V electricity available. The sealed magazine
precludes the loss of loose contacts. Figure 1-1 is a photograph o£ the PORTA-
TAC. It requires no lubrication or preventive maintenance except to periodically
change the air filter or drain it. Crimp acceptability should be verified in
accordance with the user's normal practices.
Indentors used in the PORTA-TAC crimper are qualified to the
M22520
specification . They are of the highest quality and are fabricated to ensure a
substantial quantity of acceptable terminations.
Reasonable care must be exercised, however, to prevent any foreign matter,
particularly hard substances, from being crimped. Under normal operating
conditions, however, the control system precludes the PORTA-TAC from
crimping anything other than the specific contact for which the equipment is
tooled.
