Introduction
The two crimping modules mci 711 and mci 721 guarantee an optimum bond between wire
and terminal - excellent crimping.
Efficient, user-friendly operation is ensured by intelligent communication between
the presses and the basic machine. A crimp force sensor is integrated as a standard feature in both
presses.
With the mci 721, the crimping height is also programmable.
Key features:
- High level of user convenience
- Integrated quality monitoring
- Integrated interfaces for accessories
- Efficient machine communication with TopWin
- Reduced setup times
- Excellent value for the money
Function
The two crimping modules mci 711 and mci 721 are ideal processing stations for all
Komax fully automatic crimping machines. They can be integrated seamlessly into the entire range of
basic machines.
The maximum crimp force is 20kN. Wires up to 6mm² can be crimped.
The layout of both modules permits the use of all common commercial applicators.
Technology
With the mci 721 crimping module, the crimping height can be programmed in TopWin,
enabling ultra short conversion times. The module is powered by a brushless servomotor that sets new
stand-ards. A built-in linear measuring system allows fine positioning of the press carriage in 0.01mm
increments. All parameters for the mci721 are set in the TopWin software.Both presses, the mci 711 and
mci721, are identical in construc-tion from a mechanical standpoint. Both have an MCI interface. All
options can be used on either of the presses.
Quality
Both modules feature integrated crimp force monitoring in the form of a CFA (Crimp
Force Analyzer). Two built-in piezo-ceramic sensors act as the pickup units. The 3-zone analysis ensures
extremely reliable good/bad detection with detailed error information. The crimp curve is displayed
on a graph on the OMI.
On the mci 721, the crimp force is depicted as a function of the tool movement.
A certified calibration tool for absolute force calibration is available for both
presses. CFA testing equipment is available as an accessory for periodic testing of the press and the
CFA.
User friendly
The mci 711 and mci 721 crimping modules are set up in a very user friendly manner
from the TopWin software.The OMI (Operator Machine Interface) has just two buttons and a digital potentiometer
so maximum user convenience isassured. The module, accessories, integrated crimp force monitoringand
special functions like double stroke, creep speed mode, etc.can all be controlled from the OMI. The
menus are displayed in theuser’s choice of any one of seven languages.
The quick-clamping feature for toolsensures fast, convenient changing of tools on
the module.
