PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The T&B Manual Bench Presses are
rugged, easy-to-use production crimp
tools designed for medium to large
volume mass termination of flat cable to
connectors. A complete series of
interchangeable base plates
and platens accommodates the full
range of Thomas & Betts IDC
connectors and eliminates the need for
wire stripping or soldering.
DESIGN ADVANTAGES
• Includes standard platen 779-3130.
• Modified platens for special
connectors are available
(purchased seperately).
• A full series of base plate inserts
are available for mass terminating
all Thomas & Betts IDC connector
families.
• Base plates and platens can be
rotated 90° to accommodate cable
clearance for mid-span crimping.
• Cable guide assures that cable
enters connector at right angles
and load is evenly distributed over
the connector cover during the
compression cycle.
• Crimp reliability provided through
the positive bottoming action of
platen die on the connector.
• Base plate and platen rotation for
mid-span crimping maximizes
installation versatility.
