hydraulic crimping tool is a small handheld machine with a similar appearance to pliers, so it is also called hydraulic crimping pliers. In China, hydraulic crimping tools are widely used to crimp various copper aluminum terminals, or press cable lugs to wire ends. Hydraulic crimping tool is driven by hydraulic system. It applies pressure on the terminal or cable lug to compress and firmly attach it to wire to complete the connection between lug and wire. For China's power industry, hydraulic crimping tools are necessary tools for conductor splicing and crimping during the construction of line infrastructure and line maintenance.
The main materials of cables and wires are metal copper or aluminum, manual crimping is relatively laborious for clamping bigger sizes. To solve this problem, hydraulic crimping tools are designed to apply deformation force to terminals or thick cables to achieve connection. The applied force ranges from 6 to 20 tons, even up to 200 tons.
Hydraulic crimping pliers are used together with crimping die. The crimping die has a variety of sizes and different shapes, but the internal crimping cavity is uniformly hexagonal, and some are elliptical or round, which is suitable for terminals or cables of different specifications. Each die is marked with a size number, such as 16mm², 50mm², 185mm², 240mm², 300mm², 400mm² and Etc. Smaller numbers such as 10mm ², it is mainly used for crimping wires or cables with small diameters. When purchasing hydraulic crimping tools in China, the crimping die sets are usually included in the tool kit and stored in a plastic carrying molded tool box, affordable and easy to use.
In China, hydraulic crimping tools often means a wide products range, include manual wire crimpers, hydraulic cable crimpers and electric crimpers. The manual crimper relies on manual operation and is suitable for smaller wires terminals. The hydraulic crimper is driven by a built-in hydraulic system or a split hydraulic pump, to be used to crimp larger sizes wires or cables. For electric crimpers, the most popular type is battery powered hydraulic crimping tools, which are driven by rechargeable batteries, similar to Makita. They are suitable for big quantity of crimping jobs, or work high above the ground, or the space is narrow. Battery hydraulic crimping tool is light weight and portable, can be operated by one hand, and the price is relatively high.
