Abstract
A terminal crimping device that crimps a terminal to a component includes a terminal feeder feeding one or more pre-formed terminals on a generally horizontal feed plane and a ram moving a drive crimper along a generally vertical crimp stroke. The drive crimper engages the pre-formed terminal at the feed plane and transfers the terminal to a crimp zone below the feed plane and remote from the terminal strip to crimp the terminal to the component.
