Module 7. Maintenance practices

At which frequency is the calibration of frequently used crimping tools carried out?

  • Bi-annually (every two years)
  • Annually (once per year)
  • Every 1000 crimps

Explanation

The calibration interval for a frequently used crimping tool is governed by usage rather than the calendar, typically every 1000 crimps. Wear in the dies accumulates with each crimp, so a count-based interval catches degradation that a purely annual check could miss on a heavily used tool.

marcoff asking:

How do I know when 1000 crimps were made?
The right answer should be every x time?
