Abstract: A pressing tool has two grips movable relative to one another, a crimping unit with a crimping drum arranged in a tool head of the pressing tool and having at least one crimping die and a depository for storing a strip of ferrules connected to one another as a belt. The tool also includes a transport device movable in a prestressed manner toward the crimping drum to transport the ferrule strip from the depository toward the crimping drum. The transport device has a transport plate and a transport lever pivotably arranged and sprung relative to the transport plate. The transport lever has an attachment close to the crimping drum that can be pressed in between adjacent ferrules there arranged. The attachment is arranged between the transport device and a support surface of a head cap. There is a holding-down device which is spring supported on the support surface and which presses the transport plate against the transport lever.

Abstract: A crimping drum for a pressing tool for processing strips of interconnected wire ferrules comprising a housing having a movement axis and a die part arranged thereon, the die part having a nest to accommodate a wire ferrule of the strip, the die part being resiliently accommodated perpendicular to the movement axis in a receptacle of the housing. A pressing tool has two handles which are movable relative to one another, a crimping station with a crimping drum and a crimping stamp, and a depot for storing a strip of interconnected wire ferrules.

Abstract: A stripping unit of a pressing tool for cutting into and stripping a conductor insulation of a conductor cable has a first clamping jaw with a first clamping lip and a cutting unit mounted in the clamping jaw. An adjustment unit for variably adjusting a cutting depth of the cutting unit is arranged in the clamping jaw. Also described are a pressing tool and a method for mounting an adjustment unit of a stripping unit.

Abstract: A hand-actuatable plier tool for processing cables has a plier head for handling or processing a workpiece such as a cable, two plier handles that can be pivoted relative to one another between an open position and a closed position, an electronic monitoring unit detachably arranged on a first of the plier handles and with which at least the number of handling or processing procedures can be counted and stored. The monitoring unit has an electronic circuit and a signal transmitter emitting actuation signals to the electronic circuit when the plier tool is actuated. The signal transmitter has an energy harvesting module for supplying energy to the monitoring unit and an actuation mechanism activating the signal transmitter.

Abstract: A hand-actuated crimping tool for manipulating electrical cables includes a pair of crimping grips which are pivotally connected for movement between open and closed positions and a crimping head for gripping a cable. An electronic counter including an electronic circuit and a signaling device is connected with one of the grips and is operable to count each time the crimping tool is operated.

Abstract: A crimping tool for crimping an electrical contact toward engagement with an electrical conductor, including a housing, a pair of crimping dies, a die support arrangement supporting a first one of the crimping dies in a stationary position on said housing, and a displacing mechanism for displacing the other crimping die between open and closed positions relative to the stationary crimping die. The displacing mechanism includes a rotary drive shaft, a crimping arm having a first end portion connected with the movable crimping die member, and a rotary-to-reciprocatory motion converting mechanism adjacent the other end of the crimping arm for transforming the rotary motion of the drive shaft to a reciprocatory motion of the crimping arm, thereby to displace the movable crimping die between the open and closed positions.

Abstract: A drill cutting attachment for severing an electrical conductor includes a housing, a stationary cutting blade connected with the housing, a movable cutting blade pivotally connected with the stationary cutting blade for displacement about a given cutting pivot axis between open and closed positions relative to the stationary cutting blade, and a pawl and ratchet arrangement for displacing the movable cutting blade from the open position toward the closed position, thereby to sever an electrical conductor positioned between the blades. The pawl and ratchet arrangement includes a transport pawl member that is longitudinally reciprocated by a rotary drive shaft via either an eccentric and crank arm drive arrangement, or a cam and follower drive arrangement. The drive shaft has a free end with a hexagonal cross-sectional configuration for connection with the chuck of an electric drill, and an attachment sleeve connects the housing with the electric drill body.
