General Description

1.1 Description

The Molex Standard Manual Assembly Press (11­31-6356) is versatile, reliable, and inexpensive to
operate. It is designed to provide an effective
method of apply force to a wide variety of
terminating and crimping dies. The Press is easily
converted from right to left hand operation. When
the combinations of crimping dies have been
installed the operator pulls the handle down and
then returns it to the original position. A ratchet
mechanism insures that the press goes through a
full cycle for a complete termination. The press is
suited for low to mid-volume production
requirements.
