Double-End Wire Crimping and Single-End Insulation Sleeve Insertion Machine, AWG 16–24 WM-374

Take manual sleeve loading off your production line with the WM-374 double-end wire crimping and single-end insulation sleeve insertion machine. It cuts and strips AWG 16–24 single wire from the reel, crimps both ends and loads one tubular sleeve in the same cycle. Output reaches 1,700 pieces per hour at lengths up to 300 mm. It cuts 50 to 9,900 mm at ±2% tolerance and strips 0–15 mm. The 2–3 ton press uses OTP horizontal and straight applicators, and the bowl feeder supplies straight sleeves in the 187, 250 and 110 series. Power is AC 220 V, 2.5 kW.

Specifications

Key features

• Combine cutting, stripping, double-end crimping and single-end sleeve insertion in one cycle so finished leads come off the line ready for the next operation
• Vibratory bowl singulates 187, 250 and 110 straight tubular sleeves and loads them automatically, removing the hand-sleeving bottleneck
• Plan terminal changeovers around OTP horizontal and straight applicators, and have us check your existing tooling for reuse before ordering
• Roller straightener and guided feed hold ±2% cutting tolerance across lengths from 50 to 9,900 mm

What it processes

• Appliance and lighting leads with insulated push-on terminals in AWG 16–24 single wire
• Motor, transformer and control-cabinet jumpers where one end must ship sleeved
• Harness shops replacing a manual sleeve-loading bench beside the crimping press

Suited for: single-wire leads in AWG 16–24 that need both ends crimped and one end insulated with a push-on tubular sleeve — appliance, lighting, motor and control-panel wiring built at volume. For other jobs and machine options: sleeves on both ends, heat-shrink insulation or housing insertion — for double-end sleeves, pick the WM-388 double-end crimping and sleeve insertion machine, which sleeves both crimps on AWG 10–24 wire; the other terminal crimping machines cover shrink-tube and housing models. For short leads, compare the processing-length basis and trial output of the alternative — the WM-3225 double-end crimping and soft sleeve inserting machine performs double crimping plus one-end sleeve insertion on AWG 12–32 wire, with 18–600 mm of insulation remaining between stripped ends and a specified 3,000 pieces per hour at 600 mm. Confirm accepted output on your actual lead.

For an initial quote, share your wire size, terminal part number or photo, and sleeve series if known. When you want to check the finished lead, send 2–3 meters of wire with your terminal reel and sleeves. We’ll film the complete cut, strip, crimp and sleeve cycle on your parts before you order.
