CRITERES DE SERTISSAGE Definitions INSULATION CRIMP WITHOUT SEAL INSULATION CRIMP WTH SEAL Insulation crimp Type A (F-crimp) Legend : 1- Crimp width 2- Crimp Height 3- Wrap angle Insulation crimp Type B (wrap crimp) Legend : 1- Contact area 6- Insulation crimp 2- Connection A 7- Rear runout 3- Front runout 8- Separation bridge 4- Conductor crimp 9- Connection B 5- Crimp connection Insulation crimp type C (overlap crimp) 1- Contact element 2- Conductor end 3- Conductor 4- Insulation Symmetrical O-shaped single-conductor crimp - O-crimp) Asymmetrical O-shaped single-conductor crimp (wrap crimp) Unacceptable General appearance Insulation crimping Wire crimping Strands too twisted Insulation scraps on stripped wire Strands not twisted Damaged insulation Insulation badly cut Strands damaged by stripping tool Strands crushed by insulation barrel Wire stripping too short Loose strands Wire stripping too long Insulation crimped by wire barrel Check and evaluations Acceptable Wire section too small Insulation pierced by insulation barrel Insulation pierced by insulation barrel Insulation barrel not correctly closed Wire section too big Insulation barrel not correctly shaped ans closed Insulation barrel too tight Insulation barrel not coorectly closed Measuring the Crimp height (micrometer) Retention test = depend of the contact Crimping not symmetrical Excess of material extrusion Wrong or damaged anvil Crushing not correct, shapeless wire barrel's bottom Wire section too big Unadequate compacting Wire section too small Distance between crimp face ends Formation of cracks in the crimp base Big burr unacceptable Control 1 to 7 must be done in case of doubt in visual control inspection of the crimping quality + all 300 000 cycles + change of elements of crimping + new applicator. 1 H Crimp height 2 W Crimp width 3 Fc Face end clearance 4 CFE Distance between crimp face ends 5 Bh burr height 6 Bw burr width 7 Sb Base thickness S is the thickness of material of the contact before the crimping 1,73 Measuring the Crimp width (cross section) H/W ratio et compaction of crimping compaction crimping The ration H/W is acceptable when the result is between 55% (min) and 70% (max) --> This criterion is conform in case when H and W defined in the control sheet are respected. Fc ≥0,5 x S 3 CFE ≤ 0,5 x S 4 Sb ≥ 0,75 x S 7 For the crimping is conform: - - Bh ≤ S - Bw ≤ 0.5 X S - None cracking is accepted 5 5 6 cracking 6 Stripping length precisely set and cut The wire stripped section must be undamaged The wire stripped section must be clean and free of insulation scraps Gripping marks on insulation are allowed Insulation wire Both wire and insulation must be clearly visible Insulation barrel correctly closed Insulation barrel correctly shaped and closed Insulation barrel correctly aligned and closed The crimping is symmetrical. The strands are uniformly compacted, there are no empty spots. There's no material extrusion and/or terminal deformation. The flat spots are clearly visible and aligned Flat spot Flat spot The flat spots are an important mark of the anvil on the terminal bottom, they help with the strands compacting and keep the terminal aligned with the anvil itself 1 2 -H -W 1 2 W Date d'application : 15/02/11 V3008/8.2.4/A285 rev2
