CFM-BL10Pro General instruction manual
66 / 87
6.6. Headroom software
The performance (accuracy) of CFM-Lite depends on the combination of the
terminal and wire, as well as the condition of the crimping machine and its
applicator. In order to inspect how accurate CFM can work as “a monitor”, you can
refer to 2 indicators: Head room rate (%), and Normal dispersion rate (%).
Head Room (%)
It shows the difference between “the peak force of a good crimp” and “the peak
force of a crimp without wire”. The peak force of the good crimp is considered 100%
(figure below)
Light blue： good sample
Red：Without strands
The gap between the blue and
red lines is called the Head
room. It should be more than
35% in order for CFM-Lite to
make stable judgements. Here,
the peak force of a good crimp
is considered 100%, and the
head room is approx. 70%.
