Abstract
For locally stripping an electric wire, the wire is maintained in a guide, the insulating material is cut with rotary knives over a fraction only of its thickness and the residual insulation material is broken by pulling after the knives have been stopped. An apparatus for carrying out the process has a stripping head supporting a wire-guide, provided with a drive motor for rotation about the axis of the guide and carrying knives radially movable between an inner and an outer position. An electromagnetically controlled wire-clamping system is used for axially moving the wire.
