The wire end ferrule

Language: English
File format: PDF (A4/19 pages)
File name (Download): PB-01-Wire-End-Ferrules.zip

This hands-on technical ebook describes the basic requirements for crimp connections with wire-end ferrules. In addition to the technical background for the use of wire-end ferrules, the publication provides an overview of contact types, the crimping shapes and the respective processing techniques with different tools and machines.

Another focus is the description of the required crimp quality for the processing of wire-end ferrules, including test methods, error detection and error prevention.

This technical publication contains information from the relevant industry standards, as well as from various factory standards as well as the results of practical tests and empirical findings.

Note: This publication is an excerpt from the reference book “Principles of Crimping Technology - Compendium“.

Hand tools in cable processing

Language: English
File format: PDF (A4/296 pages)
File name (Download): SP-02-EN-HandTools.zip

Compared to machine processing, hand tools have a reputation for being much more difficult to achieve consistently good quality. Nevertheless, for certain applications it is impossible to imagine production without manual tools for crimping, stripping or cutting; whether for economic reasons (small series production) or simply for physical reasons (use of machines not possible for reasons of space or application).

We take a close look at quality requirements for manual tools for cutting, stripping and crimping.  From the preparation to the testing of crimp connections. Problems and errors that may occur and how to solve or avoid them. We look at the different types of crimp terminals, their characteristics and their particularities during manual processing. We also explore current industry standards and explain ways how to achieve optimum quality for your own applications.
