Double-End Terminal Crimping Machine with Insulation Sleeve Insertion, 10–24 AWG WM-388

The WM-388 crimps terminals on both wire ends and slides an insulation sleeve over the crimped joint in the same automated cycle — a finish that otherwise costs a separate hand-sleeving bench. It processes 10–24 AWG wire at up to 1,700 pieces per hour with ±0.1 mm accuracy, strips 3–10 mm, and crimps from 2.0 to 4.0 tons under Mitsubishi PLC control. Sleeves are singulated from a vibratory bowl and placed automatically, while stripping, air-pressure and bad-terminal detection run on every cycle. The machine needs 0.4–0.5 MPa of clean air and stands 1300 × 800 × 1330 mm at 450 kg.

Specifications

Key features

• Crimp and sleeve in one pass — terminals on both ends arrive already insulated, removing the slowest manual station on the line
• 2.0 – 4.0 T crimping force spans small signal terminals up to AWG 10 power leads on one platform
• The specification lists ±0.1 mm machine accuracy; we confirm the measured parameter and acceptance method on the quote and check stripping and sleeve placement on your sample
• Mitsubishi PLC with stripping, air-pressure and bad-terminal detection stops faults at the station, not at final inspection

What it processes

• Appliance and power-tool leads with insulated spade or receptacle terminals, AWG 10–24
• Switchgear, lighting and HVAC jumper wires that specify sleeved crimp joints
• Export harnesses where exposed crimp barrels fail customer inspection

Suited for: double-ended leads that must ship with insulated crimp joints — appliance, switchgear, lighting and HVAC jumpers in 10–24 AWG with push-on insulation sleeves placed automatically over both crimps. Not suited for: heat-shrink insulation — for that, pick the WM-663 shrink tube inserting and heating machine, which cuts, places and shrinks Φ2–8 mm sleeve over wire ends and terminals — or wire outside 10–24 AWG and housing insertion; the other terminal crimping machines pick up out-of-range wire and housing work. If only one end needs the boot and the leads are short, the WM-3225 double-end crimping and soft sleeve inserting machine covers AWG 12–32 with 18–600 mm of insulation remaining between stripped ends and a specified 3,000 pieces per hour at 600 mm.

Sleeve tooling is matched to your sleeve and terminal dimensions, so prove-out happens on your parts: send 2–3 meters of your wire plus your terminals and sleeves, and we run the full crimp-and-sleeve cycle on this machine on video before you commit.

The ±0.1 mm accuracy entry is confirmed on the quote with its measured parameter and acceptance method; it does not independently establish stripping or sleeve-position repeatability.
