Optimizing crimping of lugs on flexible copper cable: safety, performance and savings
The Sicame Group, a leader in power distribution and transmission, and its French subsidiary Mecatraction, an expert in crimp connections, present their B-series crimping solution.
 
Specially designed for crimping flexible cables, the B-crimp offers lower electrical resistance than the hexagonal design, generates less heat, and saves energy.
 
In this presentation, we will discuss:
- The challenge of crimping on flexible cable
- The Limitations of Hexagonal Crimping
- The technical advantages of B-type crimping: controlled electrical resistance and heat generation
- Energy savings associated with B-type crimping
