Temperature Anomalies And Process Risks In Cold Crimping Operations

If contact socket crimp is not performed according to the specified force and positioning during the crimping operation. When the metal is subjected to excessive stress or repeated deformation in the crimping area, its internal structure may exhibit an unstable state similar to annealing effects. This may reduce the material's hardness and elasticity, making it impossible for crimp contact female to maintain its original shape under subsequent loads. Although traditional annealing is achieved through high-temperature heat treatment, heating and plastic deformation during non-standard crimping processes can also alter the metal's properties.

To maintain crimping quality, manufacturers typically conduct periodic inspections and calibrations of the crimping frame, fixtures, and needles, and control the production process by measuring the crimping height and monitoring the pressure curve. This is mainly to avoid any abnormal events that could negatively affect the properties of the crimp contact male material during the crimping process.
