![](https://smans.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/komax_gamma_450.jpg)
The compact, fully automatic Gamma 450 processes crimps and seals on both sides and takes up minimum space. It guarantees high production availability and traceable quality. The wire processing machine has all the necessary key functions and can also be extended for specific purposes using an extensive range of options. High-performance modules ensure seamless quality monitoring. Optimized quick-change systems reduce set-up and changeover times. Handling is intuitive and ergonomic – easy and error-free thanks to the Komax HMI operating software. This combination contributes significantly towards achieving stable and optimal productivity.
Gamma 450 – exceptionally economical
The Gamma 450 fulfills all the requirements of future-proof, cost-effective wire production. The precise modules and functions required can be customized individually on four stations. With these supplementary options, the compact machine provides the required functional scope, powerful performance and seamless quality monitoring. Ergonomic working conditions, logical workflows and the simplest possible user guidance all promote a cost-effective production process. Maintenance costs have been optimized by having a common-parts strategy. This makes the machinery less complex, brings down costs for spare parts and reduces training requirements.
Maximum availability and efficiency
The Gamma 450 processes crimps and seals with cross sections of 0.13 to 4 mm² on both sides. The proven, robust technology ensures continuous machine availability with minimal downtimes. Shorter routes and stringent processes between work zones improve the workflow and the productivity. Operation of the machines is aided by optimal lighting in the work areas and dimensions that are adapted to suit global standards.
Fast setup and changeover
The optional STC quick terminal changer enables the terminal rolls and crimp tools to be changed during operation. The time-saving insertion of the wire into the belt drive takes place without the need for additional cross-section dependent guide elements. The option to use both sides of the drive roller ensures it has an above-average service life.
Full quality assurance and traceability
All integrated and optional modules and functions ensure seamless quality control. Perfectly coordinated with each other, they meet the high demands of the automotive industry. Integration with the MES manufacturing execution system provides documented traceability. The integrated CFA+/CFA crimp force monitoring detects missing individual wires and crimped insulation. The optional automatic conductor detector (ACD) ensures quality, even for the finest conductors. It detects the slightest contact between the blades and conductor strands during cutting and stripping. The Q1240 quality tool monitors strip quality and seal insertion and automatically rejects defective products.
Simple and flawless operation with Komax HMI
Supported by the user guidance in the HMI operating software, the Gamma 450 can be set up in just a few steps. The large touchscreen makes operation of the HMI user interface easy. The use-case-driven design of HMI also ensures error-free data input while the Komax Green Button guides the user through the wire processing step by step.
Q1240 strip quality monitoring for maximum quality
The Q1240 quality tool visually monitors strip quality and seal insertion.Product quality can be traced end-to-end via statistics, image capture and network feedback.
Tried and tested C1340/C1360/1370 crimp modules with CFA+/CFA
The efficient user guidance and wire positioning directly on the module allows the shortest setup and changeover times. CFA+/CFA- guarantees the highest quality and minimal rejects. Combined with the time savings, this can increase productivity considerably. Features like the stroke and split cycle can be programmed easily. The C1370 adjusts the crimp height automatically during programming.
S1440 seal module for maximum flexibility
The module automatically fits wires with conventional seals and mini-seals. The combination of precision mechanics and the new seal position monitoring function guarantees a high degree of process safety and maximum productivity. The module can be simply and quickly switched from one seal variety to another.
