From Wiki
Crimp Electrical (Wire Crimper Tool)(Electrical Connector Crimping)
An electrical crimp is solderless electrical connection
Crimp connectors are typically used to terminate stranded wire. The benefits of crimping over soldering and wire-wrapping include: A well-engineered and well-executed crimp is designed to be gas-tight, which prevents oxygen and moisture from reaching the metals and causing corrosion. Because no alloy is used (as in solder) the joint is mechanically stronger. Crimped connections can be used for cables of both small and large cross-sections.
First step of crimping, the terminal is inserted into the crimp tool. 2 step, the wire is inserted into the terminal.
3, handles of the crimp tool are squeezed together, compressing and reshaping the terminal until it is cold-welded onto the wire. The crimp will be swaged or cold-formed. Crimp tool manufacturers standardized crimp tools and procedures occurred on this timeline. 1940's All terminations were soldered (Hard-wired). 1953 AMP introduced Crimp Barrel Terminals. 1957 Cannon Brothers experimented with Machined Contacts with Crimp Barrels. 1960 Buchanan introduced the MS3191-1 4 Indent Crimp Tool with a Ratchet. 1963 MS3191-1 was published as the first Crimp Tool Standard. 1965 MS3191-4 introduced by Daniels Manufacturing Corporation.
