The single-handed operation of the tri-press means that riggers can produce terminations quickly and easily whenever they need them, including on-site and at the point of application. The press has a number of interchangeable dies, which makes even crimping electrical terminations both quick and easy.
The tri-press has a number of features that add to its versatility - it can be supplied with a range of dies for various applications; the press automatically retracts once the crimping operation is complete; it has a crimping force of 35kN with a cycle time of four seconds and can complete 85 crimps per battery charge. The tri-press also comes with a RAM1 battery, an LGMA charger and a plastic carrying case.
Siobhan Hitchen, managing director of Rope Assemblies said: "We are always seeking new products that help make life easier for exhibition contractors and riggers. The tri-press allows hanging wires to be produced whenever they are needed. The hanging wires cannot be used where they may be subjected to shock loading, however, we can produce fully certified wires at our factory should they be needed."
