Huestis Industrial.... Booth336
In the present industrial and economic
climate, with a focus on lean manu-
facturing and Six Sigma, it is crucial to
minimise manufacturing losses through
efficient processes, including re-work
processes.
There are many reasons for scrap
occurrences in cable manufacturing, and
there are many stripping units in the
marketplace – includingmany commercial
strippers that utilise fixed knives or blades
to cut the jacket or insulation as it is pulled
by a cater puller or take-up.
These machines have a common setback
in that they do not follow the variations
in jacket thickness because the blade
height is fixed. Thus, the core is not
protected from the cutting surface and,
when variations occur, the conductor
surface is scored, cut or damaged.
The Huestis Cable Jacket Stripper allows
for variations in the thickness of the jacket
material and protects the core product by
means of a stripping shoe that separates
the core from the material as it is being cut
or stripped.
The machine is versatile, it can be
customised for specific applications,
and is solid in design with a history of
performance and reliability. When used in
conjunction with a pay-off and a take-up,
it will handle a variety of size ranges.
There are many successful applications on
single and stranded (bare metal or cable
core) as well as flat, shielded and fibre
optics. It is available in bench and floor
models and can be set up in a cell with
various custom operations such as wash
and reprint, strip and print, and braiders.
