RIVKLE
®
– How to ensure that a RIVKLE
®
is correctly set?
Principle
RIVKLE
®
is mainly used in blind conditions, so the most reliable way to ensure that
a RIVKLE
®
has been set correctly is to ensure that the setting parameters are strictly
enforced.
A RIVKLE
®
correctly set means that it meets all it's mechanical characteristics.
Controlling the force setting method (RIVKLE
®
P1007, P2007, B2007, P3007, EPX009)
Idea is to ensure that the tool has given, and still gives the correct force to the RIVKLE
®
. Each tool gets it proper force
adjustment but the most reliable way to control it is to use a RIVKLE
®
FC340 force controller, as described page 20.
If your tool is dedicated to an unique RIVKLE
®
, you can fix its force using either a preset cartridge set to a given
force value (RIVKLE
®
PX007), either locking adjustment in the menu (RIVKLE
®
B2007), which makes it impossible
to adjust.
Controlling the stroke setting method (RIVKLE
®
P2005)
Idea is to ensure that the stroke which is applied on RIVKLE
®
is correct. By controlling L2 value (only for RIVKLE
®
with both side access) or by controlling stroke on the tool before setting (S value). Thickness of the application has
to be consistant.
Example:
It is best is to test a setting on a sample plate with the same thickness as the application and compare the measurement
of the RIVKLE
®
lenght, before and after crimping - L – L2 = S
