Application Range

The ACO 08 was designed to meet the high quality requirements of the wire harness industry. The ACO 08 is a compact device that can be easily integrated into all Schleuniger benchtop crimping presses, but also into similar third-party products. It enables the monitoring of crimping processes by analyzing each individual crimp-force curve in detail while production is running, helps the operator to optimize processing steps, and documents measurement results.
