27.10.2010 - Complex quality monitoring during the crimping process
The monitoring of fully automatic crimping is a challenge for manufacturers of fully automatic crimping machines.
When crimped contacts are created, a good and reliable connection with the strand is expected so that optimum signal or power transmission is ensured. In concrete terms this means no individual cut-off strands, no insulation crimped in the contact and an optimum crimp height to guarantee the strength of the connection.

09.12.2008 - Higher productivity thanks to minimal changeover times
Wire processing machine manufacturers constantly have to optimize the speed of their processes, so they can cut non-productive times to a minimum. This goal is achieved by increasing the processing speed and by approaching processing stations more quickly. Various steps are predestined to decrease non-productive times and thus, cost per lead.
