A manufacturing method for an electric wire having a terminal includes a step of connecting a plurality of core wires by an ultrasonic connection process to form a connected core wire. In the step, the core wires are formed into the connected core wire having a cross-sectional shape having a width and a height in a plane orthogonal to an axis of the connected core wire, the width is not longer than a length obtained by subtracting two times a thickness of the terminal from a width of an arch groove of a crimper of a crimping apparatus in a state that a space between a support surface of an anvil of the crimping apparatus and the arch groove defines a predetermined crimped shape.

A plurality of signal terminals are disposed in parallel and comprise an embedded part embedded and held in a base member of insulating material and a protruding part that protrudes from the base member, the protruding part forms a connecting part that is electrically connected by contacting or solder-connecting to a mating connecting body, the base member comprises a main body holding part that covers the entire circumference of the circumferential surface of the signal terminals and holds the signal terminals, and a semi-exposed holding part that exposes a portion of the circumferential surface of the signal terminals while covering and holding the remaining portion, with the protruding part of the signal terminals protruding from the semi-exposed holding part with regard to the main body holding part.

A method for manufacturing a terminal-attached electric wire including an electric wire including a core wire having plurality of strand wires, and a female terminal including wire barrels crimped around the core wire. The method includes a first step of applying ultrasonic vibrations to the core wire, and a second step of crimping the wire barrels in a region of the core wire to which ultrasonic vibrations have been applied. The first step includes applying ultrasonic vibrations to the core wire while leaving a compression margin for the crimping by the second step such that the resistance between the electric wire and the female terminal is stabilized until the strand wires of the terminal-attached electric wire are severed when the core wire of the terminal-attached electric wire is further compressed after the second step.

The present invention relates to a terminal connector pliers, where the terminal connector pliers crimp a cable to a connector housing to form a terminal connector, the connector housing and a plurality of signal wires of the cable are placed into a placement position of a through-hole, the terminal connector pliers enable the third linking body and the fourth linking body to actuate a crimping block to move toward the placement position by closing the first linking body and the second linking body in a pressing manner, and while a crimp connection is performed, the first primary knife and the first secondary knife smoothly trim the wires of the cable penetrating out of the through-hole.

A workstation and method for the installation of a pulling head assembly onto one or more conductors of a cabling system are provided. The workstation incorporates one or more of: a conductor clamp that holds the conductors of the cabling system in place during the installation of the pulling head assembly; a cutting guide having indicia marks that indicate the lengths to which to cut the conductors in order to achieve a staggered pattern of pulling eyes attached to the conductors in the pulling head assembly; a stripping tool that is used to remove a portion of the insulation from the terminal end of each conductor so that the end of the conductor may be inserted into the pulling eye; and a crimping tool that is used to crimp the pulling eyes onto the terminal ends of each of the conductors.
