Abstract
A stripping tool for stripping ends of cables containing multiple conductors surrounded by an external protecture sheath, intended in particular for stripping optical fibre bundles. It comprises two gripping devices to clamp the cable in two separate areas by means of an adjustable compression on the sheath surrounding the conductors, a control device to position one of the gripping devices so as to stretch axially the sheath lying between thw two areas, and a cutting device to cut a piece of sheath of the desired stripped length; the distance between the areas and the extent of the stretch are predetermined on the basis of the elasticity of the sheath and the length to be stripped.
