ABSTRACT:
A crimping apparatus is disclosed utilizing an angular motion actuator and a unique tooling bar arrangement to redirect the angular motion so that the crimping dies move along a straight line during the crimping process. Two identical tooling bars are utilized that interengage to form a sliding assembly so that the two crimping dies, formed in the tooling bars, move along the straight line. The tooling bars, which are operated by the actuator, have complementary recess and projected portions. The projected portion of each bar is nested within the recess of the other bar. Each tooling bar has an elongated opening and a pin that slidingly engages the elongated opening of the other tooling bar to limit the sliding motion to motion along a straight line.
