Fully Automatic Double-Head Terminal Crimping and Number Tube Insertion Machine (AWG22–14)

● Industrial control panel & switchgear wiring

Control panel wiring requires every wire to carry an identification number for circuit tracing and maintenance. The EW-8155's integrated number tube insertion eliminates the manual pre-threading step that typically consumes 30–40% of per-wire assembly time, directly reducing panel build labour cost.

● Automotive wire harness sub-assembly

Body control and engine management harnesses that incorporate individually numbered wire ends for connector identification use the EW-8155's double-head crimping capability to terminate both ends simultaneously, halving the crimping cycle time versus single-head machines on the same wire count.

● Industrial automation & PLC cabinet manufacturing

PLC and servo drive cabinets require dense, numbered wire terminations across multiple terminal blocks. The machine's AWG22–AWG14 range covers the signal and power wiring gauges used in the majority of industrial automation cabinet designs.

● Railway & transportation control systems

Trackside control equipment and rolling stock electrical panels use individually numbered wires as a mandatory maintenance traceability requirement. The optional CFM and CCD inspection modules provide the per-crimp quality records required by railway electrical equipment certification standards.

Q: What makes the EW-8155 different from a standard double-head terminal crimping machine?

A: The EW-8155 integrates an automatic number tube (ferrule marker) insertion function into the same cycle as terminal crimping. On a standard double-head crimper, operators must manually pre-thread numbered identification markers onto each wire before the wire enters the machine. The EW-8155 feeds and inserts the number tube automatically, eliminating this manual step entirely and increasing throughput to 700–900 pcs/h on AWG22–AWG14 wire.

Q: What wire gauges and cutting lengths does this machine support?

A: It handles AWG22 to AWG14 wire, with cutting lengths from 80mm to 99,999mm and a cut precision of ±(0.2+0.002×L)mm. Stripping length is adjustable from 0.5–8mm at the front end and 0.1–10mm at the rear end. These ranges cover the control wiring and harness sub-assembly gauges used in industrial panel building, automation cabinets, and automotive body wiring.

Q: What terminal applicator types are compatible with this machine?

A: It accepts both cross-feed and direct-feed OTP terminal applicator moulds with 30mm or 40mm stroke, covering the applicator families used by the majority of connector manufacturers for AWG22–AWG14 open-barrel terminals. Applicator changes require no machine reconfiguration — only the applicator tooling is swapped when switching terminal series.

Q: What quality monitoring options are available?

A: Two optional modules are available: a CCD visual inspection system that verifies terminal position and number tube insertion on every cycle, and a crimping force monitor (CFM) that records the force-displacement profile of each crimp. Both options output data for production traceability reporting, meeting the quality documentation requirements of automotive Tier 1 suppliers and IEC-certified industrial panel builders.
