描述

7-2151790-7 is a crimp tooling component used in wire termination processes to achieve precise crimping of wire and barrel assemblies. The tooling is designed to maintain critical dimensional parameters including crimp height (CH) and crimp width (CW), which directly influence the area index (AI) performance of the crimp joint. A typical design point for area index is 80%, with crimp height and width maintaining an approximate ratio of 65%, such as CW = 0.110 in and CH = 0.068 in. The tooling components, particularly the wire crimper and anvil, are manufactured from materials selected to withstand high loads, moderate shock, and the shear loading generated during the plastic deformation and extrusion of the terminal barrel. Dimensional control is critical, as small variations in crimp width (±2%) directly translate to proportional variations in crimp height, consuming significant portions of the total tolerance budget. This tooling is essential for production environments where consistent crimp quality, pull test values, and lead throughput must be monitored and maintained.
