A manufacturing method of a crimping terminal includes a terminal supply step of supplying the crimping terminal to a crimping position with a wire by a terminal supply device, the crimping terminal including a terminal connection portion, a wire connection portion to be crimped onto the wire, and a joint portion linking side walls of the terminal connection portion and the wire connection portion, a support step of supporting a bottom portion of the crimping terminal supplied to the crimping position by a first mold, a crimp step of deforming the wire connection portion while relatively moving toward the first mold, and crimping the wire connection portion onto the wire by a second mold, and a regulation step of regulating a width of the joint portion so as not to be wider than a width of the terminal connection portion, by sandwiching the joint portion from both sides in a width direction when the second mold crimps the wire connection portion by a regulation portion.

Manufacturing method of crimping terminal

A method of manufacturing a wire with a terminal includes a crimping process of crimping a crimping terminal on a wire by a terminal crimping apparatus that includes a first mold including a supporting surface supporting the crimping terminal, and a second mold disposed to face the supporting surface and including a recessed wall surface. The recessed wall surface includes a first wall surface and a second wall surface, and a third wall surface curved toward an opposite side of the supporting surface. The first wall surface and the second wall surface include inclined portions and parallel portions. The inclined portions are inclined with respect to the stroke direction so that an interval in the width direction becomes narrower toward the third wall surface. The parallel portions are parallel to the stroke direction. In the crimping process, the side wall surfaces of the first mold face the inclined portions in a state in which the first mold and the second mold come closest to each other in the stroke direction.

Method of manufacturing wire with terminal and crimping terminal

A terminal crimping apparatus includes a terminal supply device configured to supply a terminal chain member including a plurality of crimping terminals, a first mold including a first edge portion provided at one end of a supporting surface supporting the crimping terminals, a second mold configured to crimp the crimping terminal onto a wire by sandwiching the crimping terminal between the second mold and the supporting surface, and a terminal cutting member including a second edge portion. The terminal cutting member cuts a boundary with the crimping terminal in a link portion using the second edge portion.

Terminal crimping apparatus

A crimp terminal includes a wire connection portion including a bottom wall portion, and a pair of side wall portions. The wire connection portion includes a core wire crimping portion provided on one end side, and to be crimped onto a core wire of a wire, and a covering crimping portion provided on another end side, and to be crimped onto a covering of the wire, and integrally covers the core wire and the covering. In the core wire crimping portion before crimping, an interval between outer wall surfaces of the pair of side wall portions is widest at an end portion on the covering crimping portion side, and in the covering crimping portion before crimping, the interval is widest at an end portion on the core wire crimping portion side.
