ABSTRACT:
A wire cutting and stripping mechanism (22) for use with a wire processing machine (10) is disclosed. The mechanism includes a pair of cutting and stripping blade (180, 182, 184) tool holders (60, 62) which are slidingly coupled to the frame (16) of the machine. The tool holders are arranged to move toward a wire (12) to be processed in two discrete amounts of movement which are separable by a pause in movement. A pair of cylinders (130, 132) are interconnected to effect these two discrete movements. During the first movement the wire 12 is severed, followed by a pause in movement while the cut wire is repositioned axially with respect to the stripping blades (182, 184). The second movement is then initiated to sever the insulation, the stripping blades (182, 184) being held in position while the wire is withdrawn to strip off the slug (196) of cut insulation.
