Machine Description 

The  microprocessor  controlled  coaxial  cable  stripping  machine  ST730T  is  designed  to 
strip wires and coaxial cables up to 7 mm outer diameter and strip lengths up to 30 mm in 
up  to  9  steps.  Even  single  insulated  wires  can  be  processed  accurately.  The  ST730T  is 
capable  of  storing  up  to  999  programs.  Cable  parameters  can  easily  be  stored  and  re-
called at any time.

 

Following a brief summary of the machine features:

 

 

  The operations of the 9 stripping steps can be done in a single fixation. This increases the pro-

cessing speed and saves time. 

  High reproducibility of the strip length when properly handled. 

  Different wire diameters can be processed without any mechanical settings. 

  Stripping and corrective values can be directly set and stored. 

  Any stored stripping parameters can be selected and will remain in memory even in the event of 

blade changes or power failures. 

  The stripping diameters can be precisely adjusted with an accuracy of up to 1/1000 mm. 

  The ST730

T

 is easy to operate and enables the user to be familiar with the process within a few 

minutes. 

  The precision of all components together with the microprocessor control assure the highest 

process reproducibility.  

  The RS 232 interface makes the ST730

T

 compatible with various peripheral devices. 

 

Unpacking the ST730T 

  Take the ST730

T

 out of the package 

carefully

 and remove the packing material. 

 

  The packaging should be kept for future handling purposes. 

 

  In case the ST730

T

 is to be shipped by post than the transportation locks (foamed plastic (1) 

between the stripping head 

(

5

)

 and the clamping jaws (4)) must be in place (Fig. 2, page 11).
