How to Choose the Right Terminal Crimping Machine for Your Needs

Terminal crimping machines are crucial equipment for businesses that have to connect ends, known as terminals, to the wire. It can be tough to choose the right machine, but with a little bit of thought and some research, you’ll be on your way to finding the best for your needs. Below are some key factors to consider when selecting your next terminal crimping machine from MIDE.

Kinds of Terminal Crimping Machines

There are various kinds of terminal crimping machines. Some are manual, some are semiautomatic and some are fully automatic. Manual machines require an operator to arrange the terminals and wires by hand, and this can be very time-consuming. Semi-automatic machines take some of the load off you, in terms of feeding terminals and wires, but they still require a person for crimping. Fully automatics are just that, there’s nothing else for you to do other than press a button.

Production Volume and Speed

When selecting a terminal crimping machine, consider how many terminals you will be crimping and how fast you can afford to do it. For higher volumes of terminals that need fast crimping, MIDE offers a fully automatic machine. If you are not crimping a lot of terminals or if don’t need quickness, you might not need the fully automatic machine.

Classes of terminals represents the type of terminal to be used and the size of the wire.
