The ram continues downward, completes the crimping action, and starts back up. As it approaches the fully
raised position, the push rod drops off of the high portion of the ram mounted cam, shifting the air feed valve.
The extend side of the cylinder is then filled, moving the feed pawl and terminal strip over the anvil for the next
cycle. The exhaust control valves control the speed of the feed stroke and retract stroke.
Though all air feeds are pre-feed type, the feed cam position can be changed for use in different stroke
machines: 40-mm [1⁵/8-in.] stroke or 30-mm [1¹/8-in.] stroke (refer to Figure 5).
Note that the air feed requires a different cam than the mechanical pre-feed or post-feed.
NOTE
The ram collar needs to be installed when changing crimp tooling to prevent the ram from becoming captured. If this does
occur, the air feed assembly will need to be removed to release the applicator ram.
2.3. Applicator with Servo Feed System
With this applicator, wire crimp height and terminal feed are accomplished by the AMP-O-LECTRIC III servo
terminator or any machine utilizing the TE Connectivity (TE) precision controller. Refer to 409–10073.
NOTE
Some applicators will not work with the standard feed pawl in the feeder. In these cases, the special feed pawl must be used.
If originally ordered with the servo feed, the applicator will be shipped with the special feed pawl mounted to the applicator.
Each servo feed applicator comes equipped with a data chip that is part of the servo feeder latch plate (see
Figure 3). For a complete description of the data chip, refer to 409-10073. This device allows the storage of key
operating parameters that allow easy setup between terminals and also contains reference data that can be
useful for other machine setups and crimp inspection.
NOTE
Batteries Directive 2006/66/EC introduces new requirements from September 2008 concerning removability of batteries from
waste equipment in EU Member States. To comply with this Directive, this device is designed to allow the data chip to be
easily removed by the end-user when it needs to be replaced.
NOTE
Always dispose of the old data chip in an environmentally responsible way in accordance with local waste regulations. Contact
local authority for battery recycling locations.
