A method of manufacturing an electronic module includes providing a conductive strip and a dielectric material. The method includes coating the dielectric material and the conductive strip to form a layered structure having a conductive layer defined by the conductive strip and a dielectric layer defined by the dielectric material. The method includes applying a carrier strip to the layered structure. The method includes processing the conductive layer to form a circuit while the layered structure is on the carrier strip. The method includes removing the carrier strip from the layered structure. The method includes applying the layered structure with the circuit to an electronic module substrate.

A robotic gripper mechanism has a housing, a gripper arm and a retention projection. The gripper arm extends from the housing. The gripper arm has a gripper finger provided at a distal end thereof. The retention projection is provided on the housing and cooperates with the gripper arm to exert a retention force on the gripper arm. Wherein when an external force is applied to the gripper finger in a direction which is parallel to a longitudinal axis of the housing, the gripper arm will move relative to the housing if the external force is greater than the retention force.

A crimp assembly for a terminal crimping machine that crimps a terminal to a wire includes a crimper frame having opposed ends and a longitudinal axis extending between the opposed ends. The crimper frame has a jaw mount chamber therein being open at one of the ends of the crimper frame. The crimper tame has abutment surfaces defining portions of the jaw mount chamber. Crimp tooling is held within the jaw mount chamber. The crimp tooling has terminal engagement surfaces configured to engage the terminal to form a wire crimp during a crimping process. The crimp tooling has outer surfaces, wherein the abutment surfaces of the crimper frame engage the outer surfaces of the crimp tooling during the crimp process to move the crimp tooling in a first direction generally along the longitudinal axis and in a second direction transverse to the first direction. Optionally, the crimp tooling may constitute split-jaw crimp fooling having a pair of crimper jaws movable with respect to one another.
