ABSTRACT:
An automated cable stripper that is particularly well-suited for stripping multiconductor cables whose outer surfaces have an irregular contour. The stripper has a clamp assembly for holding the end of the cable during the stripping operation; a cutting and bending assembly for severing the end of the cable's jacket and thereby exposing the underlying shielding material and conductors; and a slug puller assembly for pulling the cut part off the cable's end. Cutting and bending is accomplished by a rotatable barrel or drum that carries a plurality of cutting blades and bending arms. The blades score the jacket around its circumference, and the arms thereafter bend the cable'3 s end back and forth to break the jacket away along the score line. The slug puller assembly has a pair of gripping arms that extend and grip the cut part, and pull it off the cable upon retraction of at least a portion of the puller assembly. The stripper is also adapted to shear off any shielding material that is positioned between the jacket and the cable's conductors.
