Abstract
There is disclosed a device and method for measuring a crimp height which eliminates the step of re-holding a wire to readily accomplish the application thereof to an automatic wiring assembly fabricating apparatus. The crimp height measuring device includes: a measuring base for placing thereon a crimp terminal of the wire conveyed in a predetermined wire conveying direction by a wire conveying device holding the wire with the crimp terminal projecting in a direction crosswise to the wire conveying direction; a clamp device adapted to displace to a fixing position allowing the crimp terminal to be clamped on the measuring base and to an open position allowing the crimp terminal to be conveyed in the wire conveying direction; and a control device for displacing the clamp device to the open position to allow the crimp terminal to be conveyed when the wire is conveyed.
