Lock On To Heyco's New RDD Lockit(TM) Pre-Assembly Equipment For Attaching Strain-Relief Bushings To Electrical Cables And Wire Assemblies



Toms River, NJ, May, 2004 -With the development of its pacesetting RDD Lockit(TM) in 2004, Heyco Products, Inc. introduced what is truly the next generation of strain relief bushings for electrical cabinets, chassis and motor housings. Now, Heyco announces availability of a family of pre-assembly equipment designed specifically to speed attachment of Lockit strain reliefs to higher quantities of cable and wire in high-volume applications.

New Product: Heyco Lockit Strain Relief Pre-Assembly Equipment

Design: Heyco Products, Inc. In-House Product Design & Engineering Team.

Manufacturer: Heyco Products, Inc.

Product Applications: Heyco Lockit Pre-Assembly Equipment is designed to permanently secure Lockit strain relief bushings onto electrical wire quickly, easily, repetitively and cost effectively. The result is a custom sub-assembly in any quantity, safely and economically, with greater throughput that can be installed easily with finger-tip pressure at a later stage of project assembly. The chances of repetitive stress injuries, and operator errors, in high-volume applications, are greatly lessened while efficiency is greatly increased.

Product Description: Heyco Lockit Pre-Assembly Equipment is available in three models and a range of sizes, to provide manual and semi-automatic assistance in the application of the RDD Lockit onto current-carrying wire.

The Headlock(TM) assembly tool is a manual, single-feed tool that has a small "footprint" that fits easily onto any tabletop. The Autolock(TM) and Footlock(TM) models are semi-automatic assembly tools, designed for high-volume production runs.

Autolock is a stand-alone unit with a large-capacity vibratory feeder bowl. Footlock is a large tabletop model with a gravity-fed track. Each model is controlled by a foot pedal to allow operators' hands to remain free for maximum processing speed and accuracy.
