The C-Tec FC4001 is a precision cutting machine for large crimped terminals, designed to provide fast and accurate cutting of large crimped connections. Suitable for cable cross-sections from 6 to 95 mm², it allows high-quality samples to be prepared for subsequent polishing, measurement and metallographic analysis, making the crimp quality control process more efficient and safer.
The C-Tec FC4001 is a specialised machine for the preparation of crimp cross-sections, forming part of the C-Tec Microlab product family.
The FC4001 has been specifically developed for working with large crimped terminals, allowing it to process cable cross-sections from 6 mm² to 95 mm².
The rotation speed can be adjusted from 20 to 2000 rpm, allowing the cutting process to be adapted to the specific construction characteristics of the sample and the requirements of the application. The drive motor also features an immediate stop function of less than 0.5 seconds, contributing to safer operation.
Proper preparation of the cross-section is a key step in crimp quality control. The C-Tec FC4001 provides controlled cutting, preparing the sample for the subsequent stages of polishing, measurement and result recording.
This allows the FC4001 to be integrated into a complete crimp analysis process, contributing to a more consistent assessment of crimped terminal quality.
The C-Tec FC4001 is suitable for companies that need to perform precision cutting of crimped terminals as part of their quality control, analysis and reporting processes.
