Key features:

  • Incomparable flexibility with up to five processing stations
  • Short conversion times
  • Maximum ease of operation thanks to TopWin user software
  • Networkable with WPCS interface
  • Ultra modern quality monitoring
  • Belt drive for high processing speed
  • Extensive range of accessories

Function

The Alpha 433 models are unsurpassed in their flexibility. Seal loading on one or both wire ends, various terminals and double crimp connections of different lengths and the same wires can be processed without difficulty. Teamed up with Komax MCI peripheral devices, the Alpha 433 is a very compact system offering optimum accessibility and ultra short conversion times.

Technology

The highly dynamic servo drives assure the gentle handling of wires even when large quantities are produced. With the TopWin user software, the gripper pressure can be adjusted to match the specific wire being processed. The unique gripper design allows the entire wire cross section range to be processed without having to change the gripper jaws.
The cutting head effortlessly processes wires up to 6mm2 in cross section or even up to 16mm² on the Alpha 433 H. The powerful servo motor and the two radius stripping blades arranged next to each other allow the entire processing range to be processed without conversion.

Economy

Thanks to the quick locking system, the guide tubes can be changed without tools. All guide tubes and setup gages are stored in a built-in drawer so they are within reach at all times.

Alpha 433 H

Large wires no longer pose a problem. The Alpha 433 H is capable of processing large wires up to 16mm² (fine-wire conductors). The P104 crimping press delivers the requisite force to process large terminals. Terminals can be crimped on both ends but seals can also be loaded at one end.

*Extremely hard and tough wires may not be able to be processed even if they are within the above cross section range. If you are in doubt about your wires, we are happy to process samples of them.

Software

The optional interface WPCS (Wire Processing Communication Stand-ard) allows Komax machines to be networked under TopWin. With this open interface, the machine is easy to integrate into existing production sequences.
TopNet is a clearly arranged mana-gement software with functions for the centralized creation and management of parts, articles and jobs that help you to optimize your production operations.
TopConvert can be used to convert already existing job and article lists to WPCS format. This data can then be directly processed by fully automatic crimping machines.

Processing modules

The Alpha 433 H can be customized with various accessories to meet specific customer needs:

Double gripper module

Wires of different lengths are processed into a double crimp connection in the double gripper module. The double gripper module is mounted on side 2. Its compact design also allows the mci 761 seals module and a crimping press to be mounted on side 2.
