GLW EC65 Crimping Machine

The EC 65 is compact and lightweight, yet rugged enough for the factory floor. It is well suited for complex cable harness assemblies.
The EC 65 is an ideal device to securely crimp wires and cable terminals such as:

Insulated cable lugs to 6 mm 2 / 10 AWG
Tubular cable lugs, solderless terminals to 10 mm 2 / 8 AWG
Flat tab terminals to 6 mm 2 / 10 AWG
Wire end sleeves to 50 mm 2 / 1 AWG

The EC 65 can be operated in one of two modes.

Mode 1: controls the entire crimp process by pressing down the pedal switch.

Mode 2: allows the user to fix the terminal on the cable by actuating the foot switch once. To finish the crimping process, he presses down the foot switch once again. Mode 2 is used for more complex terminals.

The onset of compression force can be adjusted for each new terminal to satisfy crimp integrity. That way, damage to dies and terminals can be minimised.

Simply press a button to select the opening for each die.

Since some female terminals are more difficult to crimp, a moveable locator can be utilised to ensure proper crimping.

Various standard dies are available, as well as dies designed to customer specifications.

Accessories: Locator for crimping female disconnects / Its carrying handle converts the EC 65 into a portable crimping tool.

GLW MC25 Crimping Machine

With its 12 kg, MC 25 is a very lightweight tool, and thanks to its carrying handle it can be moved easily between different job sites.
It does not require pressurized air, but only a 230 V mains connection.
It takes only 1.5 seconds to crimp and strip the insulation.
The MC 25 processes wire end sleeves with a cross section of 0.5 to 2.5 square millimeters and a standard length of 8 mm.
You can change the applicatior for the diameter of the sleeves in a matter of seconds without any additional tools. Just snap it in and off you go!
All applicators are clearly arranged in a kit that comes with the crimper.
Reliable operation thanks to an advanced microprocessor-controlled cam drive.
The stripping unit is fitted with V-blades. It can be used for most commercially available conductors.
Tape-mounted wire end sleeves are fed into the machine via a dispenser fitted to its right side.
GLW DC125 Duct Cutter

GLW DC125 Duct Cutter

- The DC 125 cuts wiring ducts with angular precision, burr-free. No rework is required.

- Your workplace remains clean at all times because no chips are produced when cutting.

- DC 125 operates silently and without emissions.

- Thanks to its optimised cam drive, the force required for cutting wire ducts is low.

- A 1 m long scale with length stop ensures cutting exactly true to length.

- The hardened cutting blade has a cutting width of 125 mm.

- A folding blade guard ensures safe operation.

- The DC 125 has been TÜV-tested.
GLW DR 30K Cable Dereeler

GLW DR 30K Cable Dereeler

The DR30k Dereeler has been specially designed for small reels of wire and coils of tubing. It's simple yet effective design allows it to be used with bench top cutting & cut/strip machines that feed from left to right or right to left.

The DR30k is an useful supplement to the Cross Cutting Machine LC 100 and makes wire feeding easier for both loose hanks or reel mounted cable

Smooth acceleration and deceleration of the rotary mounting plate is achieved by running the cable around a spring mounted pulley.

This also provides constant tension to prevent twisting or slippage at the clutter unit.

Quick reel change is possible as the reel and plate can be replaced together.

A reel and plate holder makes cable storage easy and convenient.

GLW MC40-1 Automatic Stripper & Crimper

Our electro-pneumatically controlled automatic stripper and crimper MC 40 efficiently processes loose wire end sleeves with plastic collars.

The standard version comes with crimping tools with cross-sections of 0.5/0.75/1.0/1.5 mm 2 and a sleeve length of 8 mm.
Stripping and crimping takes place in one operation.

It just takes a few seconds to set it to the desired cross-section.

Extension sets are available for processing cross-sections of 0.25/0.34/2.5/4 mm². All variable parameters can be set automatically and correctly when changing the crimping insert.

Thanks to its modular design and its maintenance and wear-free components, the unit is extremely reliable.

GLW AC25 Pneumatic Crimper Series

The AC 25 and AC 100 are lightweight and easy to use. The crimping mechanism is easily activated, making it perfectly suited for work in control cabinets and electrical equipment.   Table top versions of AC 25 T and AC 100 T are activated by a foot switch, allowing the operator to use both hands. These versions are perfect for bench work such as cable assemblies.   These tools are maintenance free – they require no routine calibration – only 60–90 psi to allow proper operation. With their rugged polyamide casings, they are ideal for heavy duty use in industry.

GLW RC300 Din Rail Cutter

GLW RC300 Din Rail Cutter

- RC 300 is used for cutting to length DIN rails sizes TH 15-5.5, TH 35-7.5 and TH 35-15 x 1.5.

- DIN rails can be cut to the desired length quickly and without burr. Thanks to its optimally designed lever ratio, RC 300 requires little force, so anyone can operate it.

- Because of the 1 m long scale, with length stop, the DIN rails can be cut exactly true to length.

- The cutting edges are correctly angled, and no subsequent machining is required.

GLW CS60 Stripping Machine

The current settings are shown on a large display and the clear graphics enable intuitive operation.

The setting knobs are clearly positioned on the front panel.

Short feed-in lengths and a clearly visible working area facilitate fast, effortless work.

The clamping force is automatically adjusted to the necessary stripping force. This prevents indentations on sensitive insulations.

Specially shaped stripping blades guarantee reliable wire stripping.

The on-screen counter gives a visual display of how many pieces that have been processed.

The carrying handle allows the CS 60 to be transported

GLW LC100 Cable Cutting Machine

The LC 100 is optimally suited for both, short runs and production runs thanks to its simple operation rugged design.

Two driven transport rollers and separately running measurement rollers guarantee precise cutting length.

A material change could not be simpler. As the front flaps swivel down, the drive and measurement rollers are automatically moved away from each. The material being cut is inserted and when the front flap closes, the driven and measurement rollers position themselves automatically.

For cutting sensitive materials, the application force of the drive roller can be readjusted.

With the software supplied with each LC 100 it is possible to process and document repeat cutting orders directly on the PC and to transfer them to the LC 100.
