Most Finn-Power crimpers are available with two types of controls:
• MS Control
• UC Control
Controls
MS Control
MS models are well suited for single-piece production (e.g. repair shops). The MS control is the most basic and easy to use control offered by Finn-Power.
The crimping diameter is set by using a 10-turn vernier dial. Each turn is equivalent to crimping diameter changes of 1 mm. The dial is incremented in whole, tenths and hundredths mm settings.

The UC control is a modern user interface based on icons, a selector and clear, visual indication of all crimping parameters. Basic functions are quick and easy to use. The UC contols is capable of online quality monitoring.
