Abstract
A cut and strip machine () for producing cable-sections by processing a passing cable, especially coaxial or optical cable (). Cable-sections are cut off from the cable, and on both ends of each cable-section at least one insulating layer can be notched/cut and stripped off. The machine comprises at least one cable feeding device (), and a cable processing unit, preferably cutting unit () arranged adjustably transverse to a cable axis, as well as a first cable guiding unit arranged—in a feeding direction () of the cable ()—in front of said cable processing unit (). A second cable guiding unit is arranged behind said cable processing unit (). These first and second cable guiding units may be formed as fixed, non-rotating first and second cable centering units (). These are arranged in the immediate vicinity of the cable processing unit (), and are suitable for centering, preferably straight-line centering, of the cable () on both its sides. At least one of the cable centering units () can be adjusted transversely to the cable axis for effecting its adjustment to the current diameter of the cable to be processed.
