Crimping tool

A crimping tool comprising:

• a) a plurality of crimping dies arranged in a star shape directed toward a crimping region, wherein each crimping die of said plurality of crimping dies is mounted to pivot in about a respective pivot axis of said crimping die transverse to a respective longitudinal extent of said crimping die and to form a respective abutment region on a respective crimping region side of the respective pivot axis;
• and
• b) an activating part adapted to rotationally act on said plurality of crimping dies at a radially outward location to effect a crimping movement;
• wherein a rotational activation of said plurality of crimping dies by said activating part is accompanied by at least one of a superimposed radial movement and a superimposed circumferential movement achieving an abutment of a respective abutment region of a first crimping die of said plurality of crimping dies with a counter-abutment region of a second crimping die of said plurality of crimping dies, said second crimping die being adjacent to said first crimping die in a pivoting direction or a counter pivoting direction.
