<p>There is disclosed a method and apparatus for automatically cutting and stripping a sheathed wire (1) to form a predetermined length (L1) of sheathed wire having predetermined lengths (L3, L4) of stripped wire core (2, 2a) projecting from the leading and trailing ends of the sheathed wire. Sending means (11, 41) advance the sheathed wire by predetermined lengths (L3, L4) relative to a cutting station (31) by rotating a pair of rollers (12, 13; 42, 43) in a wire-advancing direction, and predetermined lengths (L3, L4) of the cover (3) of the sheathed wire are cut at the cutting station (31) so as to permit subsequent removal of portions of the cover (3) thereby leaving uncovered core ends (2, 2a). The rollers (12, 13; 42, 43) are rotated in a wire-withdrawal direction so as to remove the cut lengths (L3, L4) of cover (3) and simultaneously the rollers are moved axially and therefore transversely of the path of travel of the sheathed wire thereby to apply twisiting to the uncovered wire core end (2a).</p> |
