Choosing tools/dies
Cu-terminals
When crimping Cu-terminals of Elpress design, the following tools and dies as per tables below should be used.
1. Inner dieholder V1316 for V1311
2. Outer dieholder V1318 for V1311
3. Dieholder V1330 (pair) for V1311C
4. Press dies - hexagon dies should be used for terminals and connectors. See tooling table below.
5. Press dies - C-dies should be used for C-sleeves. For choice of press dies, see tooling table below.
IMPORTANT! The pair of dies should be located 2 mm or so from the outer edge of the terminal during the
crimping operation. Connectors 12-36 kV should be crimped over the outer edge of the
sleeve.
