PROCESS FOR MECHANICALLY REMOVING THE ENCAPSULATING MATERIAL FROM A FIBER-OPTIC RIBBON CABLE AND TOOL FOR IMPLEMENTING THE PROCESS

摘要

The tool is constituted, on one hand, by a lower plate (12) traversed by a calibrated orifice, between an admission chamber (14) equipped with a roller (18) and a cutting plate (15) and, on the other hand, by an upper cover (22) also pierced by an opening (24) emerging in an inlet chamber (26) equipped with a roller (28). The upper cover is placed above the lower plate at distance that is variable so that the calibrated orifice and the opening are aligned, or can be offset heightwise.
