Terminal Crimping Machine with One-End Insulation Sleeve Inserting, AWG 16–24 WM-374

›

The WM-374 takes wire off the reel and delivers a finished lead in one cycle — cut to length, stripped, terminals crimped on both ends and a tubular insulation sleeve pushed onto one end. It runs AWG 16–24 single wire at up to 1,700 pieces per hour within 300 mm, cuts from 50 to 9,900 mm at ±2% tolerance, and strips 0–15 mm. Crimping force of 2–3 tons suits standard OTP horizontal and straight applicators, while a vibratory bowl feeds 187, 250 and 110 straight sleeves automatically. It draws AC 220 V at 2.5 kW.

Specifications

Key features

• One cycle replaces three stations — cutting, stripping, double-end crimping and one-end sleeve loading come off the machine as a finished lead
• Vibratory bowl singulates 187, 250 and 110 straight tubular sleeves and loads them automatically, removing the hand-sleeving bottleneck
• Takes standard OTP horizontal and straight applicators, so existing crimp tooling carries over when you change terminals
• 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. Not suited for: 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. Short leads under 600 mm run faster elsewhere too — the WM-3225 double-end crimping and soft sleeve inserting machine does the same double-crimp plus one-end sleeve job at 3,000 pieces per hour on AWG 12–32 wire, provided every lead is between 18 and 600 mm.

Prove-out happens on your parts: send 2–3 meters of your wire together with your terminal reel and sleeves, and we run the full cut, strip, crimp and sleeve cycle on this machine on video before you commit.
