Abstract
A rotary blade wire insulation cutting and stripping machine includes a pair of linear actuators respectively controlling the length and the depth of cuts in accordance with keyboard inputs to a microprocessor. The cutter blades are initially positioned with their cutting edges in mutual contact and provide the stop for wire insertion. The gripping jaws which hold the wire are relatively movable in a single horizontal plane to maintain the axis of the wire at a fixed point irrespective of its diameter. The rotatable elements include a yoke structure extending forwardly of the blades and holding a bushing through which the wire is inserted closely adjacent the blades to provide an accurate guide and centering device for the wire.
