ABSTRACT:
A portable, lightweight, handheld, battery powered wire stripper which has an automated adjustable stripping cycle. Various components are assembled into a lightweight frame so as to define a generally axially extending wire stripping channel for receiving a free end of an insulating wire from which a slug of insulation of an adjustable predetermined length is to be semi-stripped. Sensors and controls are provided so that the insertion of the free end of a wire into the channel triggers the commencement of an automatic stripping cycle. During the cycle the wire is clamped in position in the channel and two edged blades are snapped into the insulation by electrical solenoids to form a slug of insulation. The edged blades are left in the closed position and the slug is stripped by moving the closed blades axially towards the free end of the wire. An electrical motor driving a lead screw is used to generate the substantial force which is required to semi-strip the slug from the wire.
