466293-2

Crimpers, applicators, and presses are important components of any production process working with electrical wires. A 466293-2 applicator is a type of press that is used to crimp copper wire terminations. This applicator is a long arm press used to create repeatable and reliable crimps on battery cable end terminals.

Application field

The 466293-2 Applicator is appropriate for use in a range of applications, including the assembly and crimping of electric cables for Maritime applications, aircrafts, railroad cars, trucks, buses, and any other applications requiring crimping of electric cables with copper terminals. It is specifically designed for applications that require reliable and repeatable crimps on battery cables with copper terminals. Its ability to deliver consistent crimps makes it an ideal choice for these applications.

Working principle

The 466293-2 applicator is a long arm press with a compact, yet robust design. At its core, it is composed of a spring-loaded actuation lever and a crimp head. The lever is used to engage the crimp head, which is inserted in the electrical terminal. As the lever is pressed, the crimp head compresses the terminal and forms the crimp. The lever is then released, and the crimp head moves away from the terminal. This entire process is automated and repeatable, making it ideal for crimping wire terminations.

The 466293-2 applicator also features a range of safety features, which further increase its reliability. A bypass switch prevents accidental operation of the press, while a guard mechanism provides safety in the event of an unexpected release of the lever. Additionally, there is an indicator light that illuminates when the lever is engaged, allowing the user to easily monitor the machine’s operation.

Conclusion

The 466293-2 applicator is an invaluable tool for a variety of electrical wiring applications. It is designed to provide reliable and repeatable crimps on copper terminals for a wide range of applications, including in vehicles, aircrafts, and rail cars. Furthermore, the press features a range of safety features that make it both safe and efficient to use.
