ABSTRACT:
A crimping apparatus for crimping a workpiece such as a terminal or eyelet around a core such as a wire or a fiber optic cable. The apparatus includes upper and lower identical plates supported for opposing reciprocal motion on respective upper and lower portions of a press. Each plate includes two crimp segments. Each crimp segment has an impingement surface. All four of the crimp segments are supported for mutually convergent motion relative to one another. The vertical motion of the two plates closing together drives both the vertical and the lateral components of the convergent crimp segment motion. The impingement surfaces of the respective crimp segments form a generally annular composite crimping surface for cooperatively crimping a work piece into an arcuate configuration around a core.
