Benchtop Wire Cutting and Stripping Machine for 0.1–10 mm² Single-Core Wire WM-167
The WM-167 is a 36 kg benchtop machine that cuts and strips single-core wire from 0.1 to 10 mm² (AWG 32 to AWG 7) at 3,000 to 8,000 pieces per hour on 100 mm wires. It cuts from 1 to 9,999 mm at a tolerance of 0.2 ± 0.002×L mm, strips up to 80 mm at head and tail, and opens up to 16 middle-strip windows per wire for grounding and daisy-chain jumpers. Running on 220/110 V at 500 W with no compressed air, it fits a 390 × 350 × 255 mm bench corner next to the crimping station.

Key features
- Up to 8,000 short wires per hour from a machine light enough for two people to lift onto any workbench
- Middle stripping opens up to 16 insulation windows along one wire — grounding chains and jumper loops come off the machine ready to solder or crimp
- Covers the full hookup-wire spectrum from 0.1 mm² signal wire to 10 mm² power leads with one roller setup
- Runs on a standard socket at 500 W with no compressed air, so it deploys anywhere on the shop floor the same day it arrives
What it processes
- Electronics and appliance factories cutting hookup wire from 0.1 to 10 mm² in volume
- Grounding wires and daisy-chain jumpers that need multiple mid-wire insulation windows
- Prototype shops and cell-based lines that need cut-and-strip capacity without an air line
Suited for: single-core hookup wire from 0.1 to 10 mm² (AWG 32 – AWG 7) cut to length with head, tail and mid-wire stripping — the everyday wire volume of electronics and appliance harness benches. Not suited for: sheathed multi-core cable or jackets above Φ10 mm — for 2–8 core sheathed cable up to Φ10 mm, pick the WM-168HT multi-core cut and strip machine, which strips sheath and cores in one program; single-jacket wire from 10 up to 25 mm² (Φ13 OD) runs on the WM-194 8-wheel cut and strip machine, which keeps the same 16-section middle stripping.
If your insulation is unusual — silicone, ETFE, tightly bonded PVC — send 2–3 meters of your actual wire and we run it on this machine on video before you commit.

WM-167 — common questions
What is middle stripping used for?
The machine can open up to 16 windows of bare conductor along a single wire without cutting it. Those windows become solder or crimp points for grounding combs, LED chains and daisy-chained connectors — work that is slow and inconsistent with a hand knife.
What utilities does it need on the bench?
Only mains power — 220 or 110 V at 500 W. There is no pneumatic circuit, so no compressor or air prep. At 36 kg and 390 × 350 × 255 mm it sits on a standard workbench next to the crimping station.
Can it strip multi-core or sheathed cable jackets?
No — it processes one insulation layer on single-core wire up to 10 mm². For round sheathed cable over the same 0.1–10 mm² conductor range, the WM-1228 round sheathed cable cut and strip machine takes the outer jacket off both ends through a Φ13 mm conduit and strips to 150 mm rather than 80 mm. If the jacket *and* the inner cores both need stripping in one cycle, use the multi-core capable cut and strip machines in this category.
