01 Key Features of the GBP Electric Hydraulic Crimping Tool
The First in Japan to Support Crimping up to 400sq – Designed for Safety, Efficiency, and Compatibility
Aluminum cables are increasingly being adopted as a cost-effective and lightweight alternative to copper cables. However, conventional crimping tools are primarily designed for copper cables and typically support up to 250sq, making them unsuitable for many aluminum cable applications. Here is our solution.
1. Industry-Leading 400sq Crimping Capacity
This is Japan’s first crimping tool capable of handling up to 400sq terminals, making it an essential solution for large-diameter aluminum cable installations. As the demand for aluminum cables increases, this tool provides the necessary strength and adaptability for expanding applications.
2. Advanced Safety and Efficiency Features
The tool includes PSE-certified batteries and chargers for reliable and safe operation. Additionally, an automatic overpressure stop function prevents excessive force, ensuring durability, energy efficiency, and reduced working time. A built-in high-pressure safety valve further enhances safety by preventing overload pressure, creating a secure working environment.
3. Intuitive OLED Display for Precision and Ease of Use
An OLED display provides real-time feedback on key crimping parameters, improving work efficiency. Independent boost and pressure-release buttons help prevent operational errors, offering a smooth and user-friendly experience.
4. Optimized for GBP Hybrid Terminals
Specifically designed for use with GBP’s hybrid terminals, this crimping tool maximizes installation efficiency when used together, ensuring a seamless and reliable connection.
02 Global Shift to Aluminum Cables
Across global markets, aluminum cables are increasingly used due to their lightweight and cost advantages.
• Renewable Energy: Aluminum cables are widely used in wind and solar farms for efficient long-distance power transmission.
• EV Charging Infrastructure: Large-scale EV charging stations rely on aluminum cables (typically 50mm²–300mm²) to handle high-power requirements.
• Industrial Power Systems: Aluminum cables (ranging from 70mm² to over 1000mm²) are essential for large-scale industrial applications and utility infrastructure.
In North America and Europe, aluminum cable products must meet stringent certifications such as CE, UL, RoHS, and CSA. GBP ensures compliance with these standards, making our solutions market-ready for international expansion.
