Pre-crimp Quality Analysis with Vision System

TE Connectivity’s (TE) robust, compact, high-force benchtop machines equipped with the HV-20 vision system analyze cable termination components before crimping, ensuring robust performance. The system includes a vision computer, a front-mounted monitor, three cameras, and an internal LED strip to capture and assess die set, terminal, and cable conditions for successful crimping.

Features

Less Scrap
  • The die vision system checks multiple points before the crimp to prevent incorrect or poorly positioned tooling, terminals, and cables
  • Minimizes dependence of operator’s skill
  • Drastically reduce risk of scrap, thus creates cost saving
Quality Management
  • The crimp quality monitor (CQM) detects errors during crimping
  • Can be integrated in customer’s manufacturing execution systems (MES) for data exchange
Consistent and Effective Results
  • Visual inspection allows the user to define tight windows of variability
  • Anything detected to be outside of these acceptable windows will inhibit crimping
  • The crimps that are allowed by the die vision system will have consistent diameter, cable position, and terminal position
