WIRE STRIP AND CRIMP TOOL

摘要

A system includes a tool (80) having a first arm (82) disposed along a motion plane (90), a hand-tool body (86) coupled to the first arm, and a second arm (84) rotatably coupled to the hand-tool body and disposed along the motion plane. The hand-tool body includes a first channel (98), a second channel (100), and a wire slot (96) configured to receive an insulated wire (12), wherein the first channel intersects the second channel proximate to the wire slot. The second arm includes a stripping portion (92) configured to reciprocate within the first channel, to cut insulation of the insulated wire, and to strip the insulation from an end portion of the insulated wire. The second arm also includes a crimping portion (94) configured to reciprocate within the second channel and to crimp a terminal lug about the end portion of the insulated wire.
