No Bent Pin (reference Figure 66)
Adjust "Unseated top Tool + x.xxx" dimensions in Line 1 and Line 2 as needed to set the early contact
zone to defect force just before the curve starts. A few test presses with no bent pins may be needed
to tune the profile correctly.

Profile Optimization
For best performance:


It may be necessary to tailor a profile for each connector or family of connectors.
The speed should not be changed between step 1 and 2. The inertia of the anvil can induce a force

on the load cells during acceleration which could trigger a false early contact error.
Speed can influence performance. Generally, slower speeds yield better performance.
