8. Trouble shooting
If you have any trouble, please refer to the below.
8.1. CFM cannot detect critical defective samples.
Critical defective samples such as no strands crimp, no strip crimp, double terminal
crimp and so on must be detected byCFM-BL10Pro. CFM is designed to detect those
defective samples even with the roughest tolerance, Tol No.8. If it cannot detect
them, CFM might not be cable to accurately capture force curves. The possible
causes are below.
Cause 1 : Sensor installation is not accurate and the sensor sensitivity deteriorate.
Check if PSS sensor is correctly installed. And if base plate type sensor FTW is used,
check if the preload is correctly done.
Cause 2 : Timing of Auto trigger force curve capturing is not correct and CFM does
not recognize an original force curve of crimping. Depending on the setting, CFM
might wrongly recognize machine noise appeared in front of an original crimping
force curve.
Because trigger level is too low, CFM wrongly captures machine noise appeared in
front of an original force curve. If the interval between machine noise and original
force curve is more than10ms, CFM might recognize the first output: machine noise
as the original force curve. Adjust the trigger level to a proper position.
