GC20™ Crimper with Cortex™ Intelligence
Gates® GC20™ with Gates® Cortex™ Intelligence is the latest innovation in smart crimper technology. A new addition to the Gates crimper line-up — GC20™ Cortex™ makes connected technology available to every user in the market by including this innovation on Gates baseline crimper. With access to live updates on eCrimp™ content and new product crimp specifications, GC20™ Cortex™ takes the guesswork out of hydraulic assembly fabrication. The intuitive touchscreen controls reduce assembly time regardless of hose assembly experience and offers on-board training for new operators. At Gates, we design hydraulic hose crimper solutions to be smart and versatile for ultimate operational efficiency in the factory and the field — because every minute counts when you’re on the clock.
Connected — Access to continuously updated eCrimp™ content with new product crimp specs.
Efficiency — Intuitive touch-screen controls reduce assembly time, regardless of hose assembly experience; GC20 Cortex saves favorites and optimizes crimp cycle time for faster crimping.
Safety — On-board videos simplify the training of new operators; Improved ergonomics with task light and die cone handle make the operators job easier; Calibration and Maintenance tracking and reminders promote quality control and uptime.
Cloud Connected Cortex Intelligence — Access to the latest content with data refresh pushed automatically overnight when connected to Wi-Fi, and the ability for users to pull content at anytime.
Offline Functionality — After initial set up using Wi-Fi, the crimper can fully operate offline.
Onboard Crimp Information — 3X faster than traditional PC707 when selecting crimp settings; crimp specifications automatically loaded based on user selections.
Stored Favorites — For quick reference; rename saved assemblies and drag-and-drop for preferred order.
Automated Calibration — The tablet eliminates manual adjustments to machine.
Improved Ergonomics — Addition of an LED work light and a new handle on the die cone makes it more user friendly and reduces contact with grease.
Added Safety + Control — Optional administrator and operator profiles with password protected login.
Integrated Product Selection Tool — Provides a quick and efficient way to select the right hose, coupling and die combination; eliminates the need for handwritten or printed crimp specs that fade or become outdated over time.
On-board Training Content — Knowledge Center provides, animations, videos and PDFs to guide user through the product functionality with training messages, maintenance log to easily track activity, product information and safety content.
Built-In Quality Control — Gates-only hoses ensure a qualified assembly.
