The BCC/CSC, Bad Crimp Cutter/Carrier Strip Cutter, is a sole electro pneumatic device which chops the terminal carrier strip and cuts any faulty crimped wire. The BCC function is activated when connected with the TT1000 CFA (Crimp Force Analyzer). When the CFA detects an error, the BCC pliers hold the wire and the BCC blades chop the wire just outside the crimped terminal. The wire can be therefore stripped and crimped again, avoiding that faulty crimps are released for assembling and saving the cost of scrapping a wire. The picture shows the BCC/CSC without the electro-pneumatic wiring, coupled with a R applicator, installed on a demo press base plate.
