Comtec Applicators: Technology, Precision, and Reliability

Excellence in Crimping with Comtec Applicators

Comtec designs and manufactures high-performance applicators for crimping bare, insulated, and pre-insulated terminals, used with manual bench presses, stripper-crimpers, and cut-strip-crimp machines. The Comtec range includes standard, special, and pneumatic applicators (side-feed and end-feed), designed to ensure reliability, micrometric precision, and durability in every industrial application.
Comtec applicators are made with high-strength materials and advanced technologies to minimize mechanical stress on cables, ensuring a solid and lasting connection. We offer models with crimp height adjustment via a micrometric cam (Continuous adjustment head), ensuring high precision in the crimping process. Seven-digit counter for predictive maintenance. Linear and side applicators.

Types of Comtec Applicators

Applicators for Bare Terminals (Uninsulated Terminal Applicators)

These applicators are used to connect copper or other metal alloy terminals to uninsulated electrical conductors. They are available in the following configurations:

• Side-Feed
• End-Feed

Thanks to the adjustable stroke and automatic terminal feeding, these applicators optimize processing time and ensure maximum reliability.

Applicators for Insulated and Pre-Insulated Terminals (Insulated & Pre-Insulated Terminal Applicators)

Used for crimping terminals with insulating coatings, these mini-applicators prevent damage to the protective sheath and ensure a precise and secure fastening. Advanced models include:

• Integrated non-resettable piece counter for production monitoring
• Quick-change tooling system
• Compatibility with different crimping presses

Applicators for Ferrules (Ferrule Applicators)

Specialized for inserting and crimping ferrules on electrical conductors, these applicators guarantee:

• Better cable protection from wear and vibration
• Easy insertion into connection blocks
• Consistent precision in crimping, avoiding crushing and defects

Key Features of Comtec Applicators

• High-strength steel body for maximum durability
• Adjustable micrometric cam – Continuous adjustment head for crimp height control
• Automatic or manual terminal feeding system for presses and stripper crimpers or automatic machines
• Interface with standard and custom crimping presses. Comtec applicators are designed to be compatible with both common crimping presses and customized presses developed specifically for customers needs. This means that applicators can be adapted to different machine types thanks to:
  • Modular attachments compatible with major presses on the market
