913923-1 is a crimping terminal and tooling guidance document from TE Connectivity that addresses the critical importance of proper terminal-to-tool matching in solderless wire assembly. The product emphasizes that TE applicator dies feature high-quality materials and surface treatments, typically showing no signs of wear until 300,000 cycles or more, ensuring long-lasting performance across various production volumes. TE tools incorporate features such as the CERTI-CRIMP terminal locator and Crimp Quality Monitoring (CQM) system to enable precise setup and control of crimp dimensions, resulting in repeatable high-quality crimps that meet industry certifications. The tooling portfolio ranges from manual hand tools (60 crimps per hour) to powered systems like the 3K, 5K, and Gill Terminator (1200+ crimps per hour), accommodating production needs from laboratory prototypes to high-volume manufacturing. Proper selection of wire, terminal, and applicator ensures that crimped connections meet tensile strength requirements, vibration testing standards, and dielectric strength specifications, providing lasting performance and cost savings in industrial electrical assembly applications.
