Re: Ordering Materials

EB,
The Weidmuller connectors are designed for wire or ferrule termination. It is not mandatory for the ferrules but they might make termination easier in a tight robot. Get very good at twisting the wire and inserting it on the first try. I suggest teams practice outside of the robot. 'No whiskers' should be your watchwords.
