Equipment for manual or automatic connector termination
20 May 2015Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services
A wide range of production equipment from Molex is now available from TTI, to help users ensure high-quality electrical connections that maintain the manufacturer’s product warranty and meet stringent industry standards.
Molex hand tools are designed for use during prototyping and low-volume production (less than one hundred terminations per day) as well as field repair tasks. This range includes hand-crimp, hydraulic, battery and air tools for cutting, stripping and crimping operations.
The hand crimp tool features precision terminal locators to hold terminals in the correct crimping position and full cycle ratcheting to ensure terminals are fully crimped. The Molex hand crimp tool is easy to use with ergonomic soft-grip handles and minimal handle spread to reduce operator fatigue during repeated operations.
Molex’s semi-automatic range of benchtop crimp presses suit mid- to high-range production volumes. The applicators adapt to most automatic wire processing machines and are designed to industry-standard mounting and shut height (135,80 mm). Crimp height, track and feed adjustments can be preset in the applicator to reduce setup times and there are independent adjustment rings that allow operators to adjust conductor or insulation crimp height independently of each other.
Also available are crimp press adaptors, crimp press modules, an insulation displacement machine, crimp force monitors and a benchtop pneumatic wire stripper.

Editor's Choice Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services
Dross formation is an inevitable consequence of wave soldering. It occurs when molten solder comes into contact with oxygen, forming metal oxides that float on the surface of the solder bath. Over time, this oxidation byproduct accumulates and must be removed to maintain solder quality and process consistency.
