Abstract
A termination machine includes a ram, a shearing arm, and a toggle mechanism. The ram moves reciprocally relative to a stationary anvil between an extended position and a retracted position during a crimp stroke and crimps a terminal against the anvil while moving towards the extended position. The shearing arm is mounted to the ram and moves with the ram along a portion of the crimp stroke. The shearing arm includes a blade at a distal end thereof and a post projecting laterally from the shearing arm. The toggle mechanism is operatively connected to the post of the shearing arm. The toggle mechanism selectively toggles the shearing arm between a cutting position and a non-cutting position of the shearing arm relative to the ram. The blade of the shearing arm projects farther beyond a crimp end of the ram in the cutting position than in the non-cutting position.
