CFM-BL10Pro General instruction manual

Piezoelectric force sensor FTW
FTW sensor is installed inside base plate or ram bolt and directly detects crimping
force. The sensor is well suitable to manage crimping force because it outputs an
electrical signal in proportion to force applied to machine. Depending on maximum
crimping force, its specification can be selected among FTW05: 500kg, FTW10: 1t,
FTW20: 2t, FTW255: 2.5t and FTC4083: 4t.
1.6. Detectable Defects
This section describes all the defects that CFM-Lite can and cannot effectively detect,
given the condition that crimping machines, applicators, and tools are in good
performance.
Defects that can be detected nearly 100% (major defects)
- No wire inside the crimp
- No strip crimp
PSS sensor can be screwed to
a machine body with a M6 size
screw at the place where easily
distorted in the direction of
extension.
FTW sensor is installed inside
separated base plates.
