Alpha 358 – fully automatic crimping machine

Introduction

Cables up to 35 meters (27.34 yards) in length can now be processed at high speed on a machine just four meters (4.37 yards) long.

The Alpha 358 fully automatic crimping machine sets new standards in the processing of long cables.

Coiling and binding cables directly in the fully automatic crimping machine frees up substantial space and offers considerable quality advantages.

Function

The Alpha 358 is designed for the two-sided crimping and seal loading of long cables. If fitted with an ingenious coiling and binding system, this machine can save you the production space otherwise required for long deposit units.

Wire coiler

The coiler is fully integrated in the machine. The coiling process can be optimally adapted to the material being processed in order to optimize the output. With its controlled processes, the coiler ensures perfectly coiled cables even at high processing speeds. The coiled cables are bound individually with easily removable tape and then placed in the machine for simple removal.

This approach eliminates the time-consuming tasks of hanging up and removing the cables at the laying board. In the process, the risk of damaging the contact parts during handling is minimized. A maximum amount of time is saved in the further processing of the cable.

Quality monitoring

The coiler speed is synchronized with the wire drive. The pull exerted on the conductor is constantly monitored. Gentle coiling is therefore guaranteed.

Crimp-height measurement and fully automatic pull-out force measurement are integrated in the process sequence. Optional material-change detection and the optional barcode scanner help to prevent materials from getting mixed up.

The processes are constantly checked against the specified values during production with functions that monitor crimp force, seals, splices, end of wire supply, and length. Any cables with processing defects are removed and an appropriate number of cables are post-processed automatically to replace them.

Fast changeovers

In most machines, changeover times offer the biggest potential for optimization. With options like the manual wire selector and/or the quick-change system for crimping tools, materials and tools can be prepared for the next job while the machine is running.

Jobs can also be recorded and edited with TopWin while the machine is running. The changeover time is displayed, providing an easy method for optimizing the workflow.

Software

TopWin .

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.
