bt 752 – Table crimp press

Introduction

The Komax bt 752 delivers three processes in a single device: stripping, seal loading and crimping.  Reliability and top production performance coupled with the user friendly TopTouch interface are the features that make this semi-automatic device such a compelling product.

Key features:

  • Ultra-quick changeover, setup and cycle times
  • Active quality monitoring even during setup
  • Minimal material used during setup
  • Integrated crimp force analysis
  • Integrated bad terminal handling
  • Easy to operate with TopTouch
  • Saving of machine and processing parameters
  • Good/bad sorting through cutoff of bad crimps
  • Neat disposal of insulation scrap
  • Seal applications compatible with mci 761, mci 762, mci 765 and bt 700

Areas of application

Quality monitored crimping of single and multi-conductor cables is no problem with the semi-automatic bt 752 crimp press, not even when ultra-short stripping lengths are involved. Standard commercial crimping tools (left contact feed) can be used for processing.

Optimum controls

The controls are on a color touch screen and available in several different languages. System operation is fast, logical and symbol-based with the TopTouch user interface.

Quality

The programmable crimp height, integrated CFA crimp force analysis and bad part cutter ensure a final product of top quality. Quality measurements are mandatorily required during production setup. Once the measured values are entered, any deviations are automatically corrected; production is released when the measured values match the specified ones. This approach eliminates errors that can arise, for example, when the operator manually sets the crimp height.
Only one crimp is needed for referencing the integrated crimp force analysis.
This feature reduces the material used and minimizes the setup time.
The seal applications are modular in design to guarantee fast changeovers  and are fully compatible with the Komax mci 761, mci 762 and mci 765 and the bt 700 manual workstation.

Stripper

With the programmable stripper, the device can be set up without mechanical adjustment.  All required processing parameters can be set in and saved in the TopTouch user software. The zero-cut and way-back functions combine with a programmable cutting depth function to assure perfect stripping.  

Optional bad part cutter

The bad part cutter cuts off any crimp detected as bad by the crimp force analyzer. You can program whether the cut is to go directly through the terminal or through the conductor. Cutting through the terminal involves less loss of cable length, allowing further use of the conductor.
Optional sequence processing
If you use sequence processing to process a multi-core cable that has, for example, different conductor cross sections but the same terminal, you only need to handle the cable once.
The conductors can be manufactured with different crimp heights and different types of crimp force analysis. The machine operator is visually guided through shielded cable production.
