ABSTRACT:
An adjustable crimp die assembly adapted to be mounted in a press for crimping a plurality of terminals onto stripped insulated wire leads. The crimp die assembly includes a base with a terminal supporting structure having a crimp station whereat a terminal is crimped onto a wire lead, punch asssembly opposite the crimp station, and a terminal feed assembly associated between the punch assembly and the terminals for feeding the terminals one at a time to the crimp station in response to the movement of the punch assembly. The crimp die assembly has an adjustable terminal feed assembly including a pawl member and a cam assembly operably associated between the punch assembly and the pawl member for moving the pawl member in response to the movement of the punch assembly whereby the terminals are fed to the crimp station. The cam assembly is changeable so as to change the distance the pawl member feeds the terminals to the crimp station. The punch assembly has an insulation crimp adjusting slide cam and a conductor crimp adjusting slide cam associated with an insulation punch and a conductor punch, respectively, so that the crimp height of each may be adjusted. The terminal supporting structure includes a removable module assembly mounted on the base and means for locating and locking the module assembly onto the base.
