Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2173015A1] The method involves exerting a crimping force on a conductor and a contact by a crimping device. A crimping force curve (C1) resulting during crimping is determined, and a compression surface lying below a reference crimping force curve (R) is determined. The crimping force curve and the reference crimping force curve are divided into multiple zones (Ziso, Zmc) based on a variable of the compression surface. A surface (deltafiso) lying below the crimping force curve is determined, where the surface is a measure for quality of a crimping connection. An independent claim is also included for a crimping device.
