Terminating is the process of applying [crimping] a connector or terminal to the end of an electric wire. The terminated wire makes it possible for the mass production of wire harnesses in automotive, telecommunications, computer and appliance manufacturing.

Because the terminated wire plays such an important role in the production and safe operation of virtually every electronic devise, it is vital that the terminal crimping process is performed correctly. Kenco has been fulfilling this need for 50 years, and has manufactured thousands of crimping presses including brand labeled presses for AMP, Molex®, Delphi Packard Electric, and ETCO.

Today Kenco offers a full line of crimping presses for every wire termination requirement:

• Electric presses for use with mini-applicator tooling

• Bench presses for manual operations

• Custom presses for integration into automated systems

• Standard flywheel presses for "post die" style tooling

• 10 and 20 ton presses for battery cable terminating
