Crimpers, Applicators, PressesCrimpers, applicators, and presses are tools that are used to attach connectors to wires or cables. Crimpers are hand-held tools that are used to squeeze a connector onto the end of a wire or cable, creating a permanent, low-resistance connection. Applicators are similar to crimpers, but are designed to hold the connector in place and apply a uniform pressure to the wire or cable as it is being crimped. Presses are larger, stationary tools that use a mechanical arm or a hydraulic system to apply the crimping force. Crimpers, applicators, and presses are commonly used in a wide range of applications, including electrical wiring, cable assembly, and wire processing. They are an essential part of any electrical or electronic installation, and are used to ensure that wires and cables are properly terminated and connected.
