5.2. Periodic Inspection
Regular inspections should be performed with a
record of inspections remaining with the dies and/or
supervisory personnel responsible for them. TE
Connectivity recommends one inspection per month;
however , amount of use, working conditions, operator
training and skill, and established company standards
should determine frequency of inspection. The
inspection should be performed in the following
sequence:
A. Visual Inspection
1. Remove all lubrication and accumulated film by
immersing the dies in a suitable commercial
degreaser that will not affect paint or plastic
material.
2. Make sure the die retention screw and die
components are in place and secured. Refer to
Section 6, REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR, if
replacements are necessary.
3. Check all bearing surfaces for wear. Replace
worn components.
4. Inspect the crimping chambers for flattened,
chipped, cracked, worn, or broken areas. If
damage is evident, the dies must be repaired
before returning them to service. See Section 6,
REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR.
B. Gaging the Crimping Chamber
This inspection requires the use of a plug gage
conforming to the diameters in Figure 5. TE does not
manufacture or market these gages. To gage the
crimping chambers, proceed as follows:
1. Remove traces of oil or dirt from the crimping
chambers and plug gage.
