I use an older Molex 3BF press for some of their KK series connectors. But applicator dies are about $1,000 per set on the used market, and double that or more for new.
The newer, but still obsolete, TM-40/TM-42 presses also do that kind of work.
I forget the model number on the current press with the universal applicator.
Either way, you're looking at a few thousand dollars even on the used market to get up and running, unless you really luck out.
$5k-$10k for buying new equipment is pretty much in the ballpark.
600 crimps honestly wouldn't be worth it to get the tooling. I do about 20,000 crimps per year, which is why I kept with cheaper used equipment.
