2. DESCRIPTION
2.1. Physical Description (Figure 2 and Figure 3)
The machine is supported on four leveling pads and is totally enclosed in a plastic cover, except for the reel
support which extends above for easy installation of terminal reels. The terminal strip from the reel passes
around the stock guide on the left side of the machine, then enters the applicator inside the front door. The front
door is hinged for easy access to the applicator tooling and “target area” which is visible through the clear door.
During operation, wires are inserted through the opening in the window into the “target area” for termination.
The machine consists of five major assemblies: the machine assembly, wire gripper assembly, stripper
assembly, air-valve assembly, and filter/regulator assembly. Descriptions of the assemblies are included in this
manual. Also included is a description of typical side-feed applicator used in the machine.
NOTE
i
This machine is provided with a lockout valve. This disables the machine to prevent injury while troubleshooting or
performing maintenance. When the valve is in the closed position, a hole allows installation of a lock.
A. Machine Subassembly
The machine assembly consists of a cast frame which provides the mounting facilities for the pneumatic
system and the mechanically operated components, including the applicator. Between the vertical frame
members is the main cylinder which provides the power required by the applicator for crimping the terminals.
This is accomplished through a linkage to the ram which is directly connected to the applicator ram. The
linkage is also mechanically connected to the terminal feed mechanism, and the scrap shear for operation
during the crimping cycle.
The front of the frame provides the mounting facilities for the easily replaced applicators. In front of the
applicator is the wire gripper assembly which is actuated by an air cylinder to secure the wire during the
stripping and crimping action.
