Hydraulic hose crimping machine GC™96TSi™

for hoseshydraulichigh-capacity

Product Overview
The GC96TSi™-3 crimper is capable of crimping 3" six-wire and up to 6" I.D. industrial hose. This crimper allows distributors to make reliable and professional looking assemblies providing more value to the end user. The large crimper head allows industrial hose assemblies to be made with a variety of terminations using crimpable ferrules and sleeves. The GC96TSi™ crimper has additional versatility since in conjunction with optional spacer dies and GC32™ dies; it can make Gates hydraulic hose assemblies also.

• Electronic Touch Screen control panel for fast input of crimper settings.
• Horizontal front-end feed makes crimping easier and convenient.
• 550 ton force that allows crimping of a wide variety of couplings.
• 2 speed die closure and rapid retract permits fast assembly fabrication.
• Full range die sets that enable product of a wide range of hoses.
• Crimps up to 3" 6 Wire and 6" industrial hoses.

Intuitive Smart Crimping
Our most advanced hydraulic hose crimper is designed exclusively to assemble Gates products using an intuitive touch-screen control panel that continually accesses updated Gates eCrimp specifications. The touch screen tablet is removable which allows for live feedback and visual diagnostics. Additionally, this provides a more convenient way to get machine updates in environments that don’t have constant access to Wi-Fi. The GC96TSi was thoughtfully designed to simplify the user experience with features such as the horizontal load and rear mounted mirror for safe and effective crimping. Likewise, the self-greasing head and build-up reducing valving keeps the crimper going with less maintenance.

Features and Benefits
