only be that far leaving it on the end of the wire. Elasticity of the insulation may determine the pull
required to break the slug free from the wire.
STRIP METHOD SELECTION
The strip method option (#9) allows the ability to select several types of stripping methods.
Short Wire
This is for wires that need to have both ends stripped but are too short to reach the
out feed belts. In this mode the machine strips a length of insulation off the lead that is the
total length of both the lead and tail strip. It then slides down the wire the length of insulation
that should be left in the center of the wire. Then it cuts the wire off to the correct length.
NOTE: It is very important that the body length of insulation is able to slide on the
conductor. For insulation lengths that cannot be slide along the wire without damage or
slipping the wire in the belts this mode will not work. You may need to enter values
program values different on the screen to get the measured values you need. This is
because of the flexibility of various insulations.
Lead /Tail Center Stripping
This mode will allow you to program a Center (window) strip
near the end of the wire.
To accomplish a leading or trailing Center Strip select one or both in the upper left corner of
the screen.
Then program the over all wire length and the
“T”
and “
L”
strip lengths as usual.
Enter the desired center strip length value in the
“C”
field (Center Strip) and the distance
between the end of the wire and the near edge of the center strip in the
“O”
field (Off Set).
Above is an example of a wire with a .25 in center strip 5 inches from the end of the wire.
