A) Defects that can be detected nearly 100% (major defects)
a) High feed (Wire barrel pinches the insulation)
This is the case where the wire barrel pinches the insulation (deep-feed defect). The
total force applied onto the wire barrel increases, which generates a change on the
crimping force curve. That’s why CFM can detect it.
b) Low feed (Total volume of wire inside the wire barrel decreases)
This is the case where the wire top position is pulled down and stays inside the wire
barrel (low-feed defect). The total volume of wire inside the wire barrel decreases,
which generates a change on crimping force curve. Therefore, CFM can detect it.
