Crimpers, Applicators, Presses – Accessories

The 3-459866-0 is an accessory which is used for crimping and applying press. It has several components, each of which has it own functions. It is important to understand each component and its working principle to ensure maximum efficiency while using the 3-459866-0.

Components

The 3-459866-0 comprises of several components namely -

• Base Assembly
• Dies
• Grip  Screws and Nuts
• Handles
• Rollers
• Upper Pressure Screw

Application Field

The 3-459866-0 can be used in various industries such as manufacturing, aeronautical, automotive and even medical, as it is designed to apply force precisely and in an uniform strength. The 3-459866-0 is also used for joining two ends of two pieces of metal together, often using the crimping and pressing process. It is also used when it is necessary to avoid damaging any of the elements being joined.

Working Principle

The successful working of the 3-459866-0 depends on every component mentioned above and their working together. All these components acts together in the crimping and pressing process.

To begin with, the base assembly helps to keep the components in place and avoid the device from shaking while the process of crimping and pressing is taking place. The dies act as a die guide and as a heat sink by absorbing and dissipating the heat. The grip screws acts as an additional mechanism by providing additional clamping force to the elements joined.

The rollers help reduce the force necessary during the process, by creating rollers on the pieces that allow the elements to slide along. Lastly, the handles help make the whole process easier by providing a gripping mechanism and allowing an uniform pressure during the crimping/pressing process.

In other words, the working principle of the 3-459866-0 can be summed up as: the base assembly helps hold the components in place, the dies provide heat dissipation and act as die guides, the grip screws adds additional clamping, the handles provide the grip, and the rollers reduce the force necessary while providing a smooth movement between the elements.
