The new CIMCO series includes four crimping

and five cutting tools for a range of applications.

A highlight: in contrast to standard tools, a service

cycle is only required after the tool has been

operated 20,000 times. An annual service is no

longer required. Additional important features are

the pressure safety system to prevent overpressure

errors and the USB interface for data analysis

and monitoring. This provides users with the

possibility of proving that they have carried out

the work safely.

The hydraulic, battery-operated crimping tool

can apply up to 60 kN of force. Depending on

Products

the head, the user can select crimping inserts

according to DIN 48083 part 1 up to 185 mm

2

(open C-shaped crimping head), or the standard

C half shells up to 300 mm2 (crimping head with

quick release).

In addition, the user has a practical battery-

operated cutter which makes it easy to cut Cu

and Al conductors up to 25 mm ø, or also steel

cable up to 16mm ø.

The series also includes two 130 kNpistol-shaped

crimping tools for a diameter of up to 400 mm2

(H-shaped head andC-head). A variety of cutting

tools in this shape complete the product range.

All tools are supplied with two high performance

18 V Li-Ion rechargeable batteries compatible

with the DeWalt XR series charging system. All

tools also have a simple LED display showing

battery charge, errors, and maintenance checks.

They are also equipped with an energy-saving

function to switch the tool off automatically after

10 minutes if it has not been used.

The latest generation of

battery-powered, hydraulic

crimping and cutting tools from

CIMCO make it possible to

verify the quality of the work

carried out thanks to data

analysis.

A whitepaper from Eaton to help with the implementation of DIN EN 60204-1.

Any company that wants to put machinery and

equipment on the market in the European Union

must affix the CE mark to its products. This marking

certifies that the machine meets the requirements

of all relevant EU directives. CE marking serves as

a kind of passport to support the free movement

of goods within the European Economic Area.

EU directives such as the Low Voltage Directive

(2014/35/EU) and the Machinery Directive

(2006/42/EC) contain requirements for general

and occupational safety that must be met by all

the products they cover.

According to both these directives, EN 60204-1

is the designated harmonized standard for the

electrical equipment of machines. It applies to

all electrical, electronic and programmable

electronic equipment and systems for machines,

including machine clusters that operate in a

coordinated manner.

Information about New Norms

EN 60204-1 had been in place for more than

ten years. In June 2019, theGerman version (VDE

0113-1) of the European EN 60204-1 came

into force. This updated version contains new

requirements that must be taken into account when

configuring a machine or system. This applies

in particular to devices that interrupt the power

supply in order to prevent unexpected start-up,

as well as to residual current devices and to

the activation of the stop function in frequency

inverters.

The Eaton whitepaper not only explains these

changes but also provides practical tips for easy

implementation of the update to EN 60204-1.
