Hi Guy!
Thanks! That's good info that I didn't have before. I'm waiting on
Heilind to get back to me with the questions that I have.
Bob, I think that Heilind is the one that makes these, or bought the
rights to it. In the manual it says they were designed by a company
named Actron, which used to be a division of McDonnell Douglas Corp.

We have three K presses here, they just don't have the "oomph" do this
terminal...they struggle with terminals that is nowhere as beefy as this
one. This one is a solid nickel ring terminal that really does take some
force to crimp...

We used an early version of the tool at Allen Organ Company, to get UL
certified crimps. They were okay for lower volume, say 50 to 100 crimps
per shift or a onetime project with a few hundred crimps. But, for
higher volume I would recommend a refurbed K, or G press.

Hi All,
We have a cable that we crimp a Solistrand ring terminal # 328822
http://www.te.com/catalog/bin/TE.Connect?C=1&M=BYPN&TCPN=328822&RQPN=328
822
We currently are using the AMP hand crimping tool #63955
http://www.te.com/catalog/bin/TE.Connect?C=1&M=BYPN&TCPN=69355&RQPN=6935

It's okay for a few terminals, but to do more than just a few it's
pretty tough on the hands. I know the proper powered tooling from TE is
the way to go, but it's pretty expensive. I've been looking at something
from Heilind Electronics called a Universal Power Crimper that looks
interesting,
http://www.heilind.com/products/powercrimperbrochure.pdf
It's less expensive than the dedicated power crimper from TE, and can
utilize other hand crimpers from Molex, Berg, Burndy, etc.
I'm wondering if any of you have ever used this unit? Does it work as
advertised? Are there any other units similar to this out there?
Thanks!
Steve
