Abstract

In this paper, the main objective is to present the current status of the automotive specifications related to the crimping process, an in particular how these specifications were adopted by the suppliers of the crimping components (e.g. Terminals and cables). For this reason, we took as reference two of the most worldwide used standards form the automotive manufacturing industry: DIN (“Deutsches Institut für Normung”) with the corresponding Romanian standard SR EN 60352-2:2006 and SAE/USCAR-21 REVISION 3.
