The WM-3242 pairs a 20 kN low-noise bench press with a vibratory bowl that orients loose terminals and feeds them to the die, so terminals bought in bags — not on a reel — can be crimped at up to 120 strokes a minute with the operator only presenting the wire. Closing height is 26 mm with 10 mm of adjustment, stroke 35 mm (40 mm option), and the die cassette is matched to your terminal before we quote.

Specifications

Key features

• Vibratory bowl orients loose terminals and indexes them to the die — regular terminals feed at 60–70 pieces a minute, 3,000–4,000 crimps an hour, with no reel to buy
• Cassette die changes without rebuilding the press; we match the cassette to your terminal and wire before quoting and return sample crimps
• Low-noise 20 kN press with 26 mm closing height and 10 mm adjustment; runs as a plain press for 800# / 2000# straight and horizontal applicators when the bowl is not needed
• 120 strokes a minute, 250 W motor — the operator presents the wire and the machine handles the terminal
• Two footprints: standard 500 × 860 mm, or 500 × 1,050 mm with a slide rail for easier die access

What it processes

• Loose open-barrel and similar terminals bought in bags, for shops that cannot get or do not want reeled terminals
• Appliance, lighting and automotive-aftermarket leads crimped at a bench station
• Shops that already run a low-noise press and want a bowl on the same station

Suited for: loose terminals from a bag, oriented by a vibratory bowl into a 20 kN low-noise press, after we match the die. Not suited for: reeled terminals only — WM-3102T. Loose tubular ferrules — WM-3103. Pre-insulated ring/fork in a bowl — WM-3220.

Send the terminal before anything else. 20 kN is the force; the cassette matched to your terminal is what makes the crimp.
