Double-End Terminal Crimping and Housing Insertion Machine for 32–16 AWG Wire WM-376

Name: Double-End Terminal Crimping and Housing Insertion Machine for 32–16 AWG Wire WM-376
Brand: Wiromac
SKU: WM-376

CE Certified HS Code 8463.90 AWG 32–16 up to 1,600 holes/h

The WM-376 crimps terminals and inserts connector housings on both ends of the wire in one automated cycle — including harnesses where the two ends differ in length, housing type or pin count. It runs 32–16 AWG wire at up to 1,600 holes per hour, cuts from 80 to 500 mm with deviation held around 0.3 mm, and strips 1–6 mm at the front and 1–8 mm at the rear. A 10-inch touchscreen with PLC control manages programs, while crimp force monitoring, CCD terminal-size checking and housing pull-back detection guard every cycle. It draws single-phase 210–230 V and 0.6–0.8 MPa air.

Key features

Both ends leave the machine finished — crimped and inserted into housings, with unequal lead lengths and different housings per end supported
Handles the programs that stop other machines — 90-degree flip insertion, staggered positions, jump pins and double-layer housings are available options
Four in-line guards — CFM crimp-force monitoring, CCD terminal-size vision, missing wire or terminal detection and housing pull-back testing
Fine-wire capability down to AWG 32 for consumer electronics and small-signal harnesses

What it processes

Consumer electronics and PCB-interconnect harnesses with housings on both ends, AWG 32–16
Appliance looms where end A and end B carry different housings or pin counts
Fine-gauge signal harnesses for instruments, sensors and small actuators

Suited for: double-end connector harnesses in fine to medium wire — AWG 32 to 16 — where both ends must be crimped and seated in housings, including asymmetric builds with different housings, pin counts or lead lengths per end. Not suited for: wire above AWG 16, lugs, or sheathed multicore cable — for heavier wire and lugs, pick the WM-371 double-end lug and ferrule crimping machine, which crimps 4–6 mm² lugs and ferrules on both ends; the other terminal crimping machines cover sheathed-cable and single-end models.

Housing tooling is matched to your exact connectors, so acceptance happens on your parts: send 2–3 meters of your wire with your terminals and housings, and we run the full double-end cycle on this machine on video before you commit.

WM-376 — common questions

Can the two ends of the wire be different?

Yes — that is this machine's specialty. The two ends can differ in length and pin count; one end can take a single housing while the other takes several of the same housing family, and 90-degree flip, staggered-position, jump-pin and double-layer insertion are all available. Send your harness drawing and we confirm the configuration before quoting.

What throughput should I plan for?

About 1,300 holes per hour on AWG 32–30 and about 1,600 holes per hour on AWG 28–20, both for wire lengths within 100 mm. Longer leads reduce the rate, so compare cycle times using your real wire lengths, not the headline figure.

What is the WM-376 not the right machine for?

Wire above AWG 16, lug-class terminals and sheathed multicore cable are outside its range, and for single-end quick jobs a compact single-end crimper pays back faster. Browse the rest of the terminal crimping machines category for single-end and heavy-wire models.
