1. INTRODUCTION
2. DESCRIPTION (Figure 1)
The 180° Cable Clamp Assembly 1424035-1 is
designed to be used in CHAMPOMATOR* 2.5 Bench
Terminating Machine 762734-[ ]. The machine must be
equipped with a clamp solenoid valve (shown in
Figure 4) and a controller having software at
Rev. 3.03.05 or later. To use the machine without
these requirements, use 180° Cable Clamp Assembly
768830-1 and follow the instructions packaged with
that cable clamp.
The cable clamp permits the machine to apply
discrete-wire jacketed cable to AMPLIMITE* .050
Series connectors, AMPLIMITE HDE connectors,
CHAMP* connectors, and AMPMODU* MT
connectors.

Make sure to retain all material in the bench
terminating machine documentation package for
reference. For detailed information on the operation
of the machine, refer to Customer Manual
409-5839 which is supplied with the machine.

The cable clamp is capable of being adjusted to give a
1805 cable breakout, and it can also be offset for the
angle-exit option when applying AMPLIMITE .050
Series connectors with the machine.
During operation, the operator places the cable into
the cable clamp, and places the wires in the wire
holder, which holds the cable wires in place during the
termination process, helping to keep the loose wires
out of the operator's way.
As the wires are terminated, the clamp follows the cam
track and moves to provide the desired breakout
length. The clamp eventually bottoms in the cam track,
determining the position of the cable with respect to
the connector.
After all terminations have been completed, the
machine moves to the forward home position. At this
time, the operator unclamps the cable, then presses
the machine's “INDEX” and “LOAD” buttons. The
machine carriage and cable clamp then move to their
respective home positions, permitting the operator to
remove the completed cable assembly from the
machine.
CAUTION
!
Make sure that the cable assembly does not get
caught on the cable clamp, or damage to the cable
assembly could result. This is particularly important
when processing the second-end connector on a
short cable assembly.
