Furthermore, a wedge flange (30) is present, which is movable and is connected to the first drive (23) of the first drive device (22). The invention furthermore relates to a crimping press with a crimping die device as well as a method for making a crimp connection with a crimping die device in a crimping press.

A crimping tool exchange device exchanges a first crimping tool for a second crimping tool, wherein each crimping tool, when at a processing position in a crimping press, produces a crimp connection connecting a conductor end of a cable to a crimp contact. The device includes first and second exchange units retaining the first and second crimping tools respectively. When one of the exchange units is arranged in an exchange position the retained crimping tool can be moved in a first direction between the processing position and the one exchange unit. The first exchange unit is moved linearly from the exchange position in a second direction, and the second exchange unit is moved linearly from the exchange position in a third direction that is different from the second direction, the second direction being at an angle relative to the third direction.

The invention relates to a device (21) for working an electrical cable (1) which has a sheath (6) and a cable film (5) situated beneath said sheath, comprising an assembly (32) of modules (33, MD1, MD2, MD3, MD4), which are independent of one another, for removing a piece (6′) of sheath and a piece (5′) of cable film from the cable (1). According to the invention, provision is made for the assembly (32) to have a first module (MD1) for cutting off the piece (6′) of sheath from the cable (1), a second module (MD2), which follows the first module (MD1), for reducing the mechanical loadability of the cable (5) in an intended crack position (RP), and a third module (MD3), which follows the second module (MD2) and has the purpose of removing the piece (6′) of sheath and the piece (5′) of cable film from the cable (1) in an automated manner.

A method for automatically mounting a connector housing with a contact part attached to an electrical line includes holding the contact part, determining an actual rotational position of the contact part, comparing the actual rotational position with a predetermined rotational position, and performing a rotational position correction thereby aligning the connector part to the connector housing. The connector housing is fixed to a holder and the contact part is inserted into a cavity of the connector housing by means of a movable gripper.

The invention relates to a device (1) for producing an electrical cable (2) which has a cable film (20). The device has a film working module (9) for reducing the mechanical loadability of the cable film (20) at a crack position (PR) which is provided along a cable centre axis (M). The film working module (9) has a round blade (33) in order to cut into at least one outer layer, which is remote from the cable centre axis (M), of the cable film (20) at the crack position (PR).

A device for assembling a reflection bowl of an intelligent LED headlamp, including a first feeding device, a second feeding device and a third feeding device. The first feeding device is configured to lead a heat sink base out. The second feeding device is configured to lead the reflection bowl out to an outlet of the first feeding device and assemble the reflection bowl with the heat sink base. The third feeding device is configured to feed a LED lamp bead to the outlet of the first feeding device and assemble the LED lamp bead with the heat sink base.

An apparatus is provided relating to the insertion of one or more wires into a cavity of a fixture of a structure or component. The wire insertion apparatus includes a grommet, a gripper adapted to interface with the grommet, and at least a first vibrating element. The first vibrating element is connected to and vibrates one or more of the apparatus, the grommet, the gripper, the wire, and/or a component of the apparatus. Vibration, induced in any direction, enables the cavities to shift position during insertion relative to the contact, thus increasing the tolerance of the cavity, reducing the failure rate of wire insertion, and reducing total production time. The vibration breaks the static friction of the contact in the grommet or dielectric opening, creates the positive locating required to insert the contact in the grommet and/or dielectric, and/or pivots the contact.

A crimping tool is disclosed. The crimping tool includes a base, an operating member and a moving member. The base includes a pivot location, a sliding groove, and first and second fixing locations. The first and second fixing locations are respectively located on two ends of the sliding groove to fix a connector of a wire. The operating member includes a holding portion, a pivot hole and a gear. The pivot hole is pivotally connected to the pivot location of the base through a pivot shaft. The moving member includes a rack, and first and second crimping elements. When the operating member rotates, the gear drives the rack to enable the moving member to move simultaneously, so as to use the first or second crimping element to press fit the connector of the wire placed at the first or second fixing location.
