Proper Crimping: Identifying Correct Vs. Incorrect Crimps

Checking crimp integrity is crucial for quality control. For large scale production, it is important to implement crimp quality checks at the start of production, throughout production, after any tooling change, and when switching to a new reel or bulk bag, as they may be mislabeled or are from a different lot code. The proper crimp tool(ing) is based on the contact being crimped, which includes manufacturer, series, and wire gauge size. Different crimpers or tooling may crimp a contact within
