An embedded wire removal tool is disclosed. The embedded wire removal tool can include a feed mechanism operable to cause movement of a cable. The cable can have a jacket about a core. The cable can also include a wire disposed about the core and at least partially embedded in the jacket. The embedded wire removal tool can also include a jacket cutter operable to receive the cable from the feed mechanism and remove at least a portion of the jacket. In addition, the embedded wire removal tool can include a wire excavator operable to separate the wire from the core.

The disclosure relates to an apparatus (10) for removing, at least in sections, at least one constituent part (6, 7) of a cable arrangement (1), comprising: —a positioning unit (11) having an insertion region (12), into which an end region of a cable arrangement (1) can be inserted; —an air stream supply device (64), which is designed to direct an air stream onto the cable arrangement (1); and—a processing unit (16), which can be displaced relative to the positioning unit (11); wherein a cutting region (50) is provided at at least one of the processing unit (16) and the positioning unit (11); and wherein the cutting region (50) is arranged in such a way that, in the context of the relative displacement, a predetermined constituent part (6, 7) of the cable arrangement (1) can be brought into contact with the cutting region (50) in order to separate, at least in sections, said constituent part (6, 7) from the cable arrangement (1). The disclosure further relates to a method for removing, at least in sections, at least one constituent part (6, 7) of a cable arrangement (1).

An opening and closing drive mechanism allows the ring-shaped claw portions on the outer peripheries of the opening rollers to press against the base end portion of the exposed braid via the opening and closing blocks, in this state, the rotation body is rotated by the rotation drive mechanism, and the opening rollers attached to the opening and closing blocks revolve around the outer periphery of the braid, so that the tip end side of the exposed braid is opened outward in a radial direction.

A wire preparation device includes a motor, a device housing coupled to the motor, and a wire spinner held by the device housing. The wire spinner is mechanically connected to the motor via power coupling components. The wire spinner extends to a wire end that protrudes from the device housing. The wire spinner includes a collet sleeve defining a channel configured to receive an end of one or more wires of a cable therein through an opening at the wire end. The wire spinner further includes an outer collar surrounding the collet sleeve and selectively movable relative to the collet sleeve to force the collet sleeve to contract radially inward for releasably securing the one or more wires within the channel. The wire spinner is rotated by the motor relative to the device housing to untwist or straighten the one or more wires secured within the collet sleeve.

An exemplary system may be configured for wire operations. The system may include a wire tool and a drive device operatively connected to the drive device. The wire tool may include a tool body having a rotational axis. The tool body may include an outer shell, a distribution hub, one or more radial walls extending between the distribution hub and the outer shell, and respective channels formed by the outer shell, the distribution hub, and the one or more radial walls.

A method for removing insulation from inner conductors of a cable having a first section with a cable sheath removed and a second section with the cable sheath not removed utilizes a stripping device to perform the following steps: inserting the first section between a first rotatable roller and a second rotatable roller of the stripping device; moving the first roller and/or the second roller toward each other to clamp the first section between the rollers; moving the cable in a first direction that moves the second section away from the rollers; moving the cable in a second direction opposite the first direction that moves the second section toward the rollers; moving stripping blades toward the first section to cut into the insulation of the inner conductors; and moving the cable in the first direction to remove at least part of the insulation from the inner conductors.

A method and a device untwists and smooths a cable end of a cable formed from single lines twisted in a twisting direction, using the device. The device includes an untwisting gripper having first and second untwisting jaws; a clamping gripper upwards of the untwisting gripper in the cable run having first and second clamping plates; and a cable gripper upwards of the clamping gripper. The method includes gripping the cable using the cable gripper; introducing the cable end between the open clamping gripper plates and the open untwisting gripper jaws; closing the plates and jaws; rotating the untwisting gripper counter to the twisting direction for untwisting the cable end; opening the jaws, reducing the jaws-plates distance and closing the plates; and smoothing the cable end by enlarging the distance between cable gripper and clamping gripper when the cable is clamped and simultaneously performing oscillating rotational untwisting gripper movements.

A J-hook device for untwisting wire is provided The device includes a knurled J-hook section; a shaft section connected to the knurled J-hook section; and a shank section connected to the shaft section. The shank section is adaptable to fit within a drill chuck.

A binding machine includes a wire feeding unit configured to feed a wire to be wound on an object to be bound, a cutting unit configured to cut the wire wound on the object to be bound, and a binding unit configured to twist the wire wound on the object to be bound. The cutting unit includes a pair of blade parts configured to interpose the wire therebetween and cut the wire. One or both of the pair of blade parts include a delay part which is configured to delay cutting a part of the wire as compared to a remaining part of the wire.
