Automatic Cable Cutting and Stripping Machine for 0.75–30 mm² Sheathed and Multi-Core Cable WM-164

Name: Automatic Cable Cutting and Stripping Machine for 0.75–30 mm² Sheathed and Multi-Core Cable WM-164
Brand: Wiromac
SKU: WM-164

CE Certified HS Code 8463.90 0.75–30 mm² 3,500 pcs/h

The WM-164 cuts and strips single-core wire, multi-core cable and sheathed PVC cable from 0.75 to 30 mm². The manufacturer's data sheet lists the function as jacket and inner conductor stripping, but every finished sample the factory supplies for this model is single-layer, and the stripping-length rows carry no separate inner-core figures — so we sell it as a cut-and-strip machine and test layered work on your own cycle. Sixteen belt-drive wheels feed cable up to Φ18 mm without embossing the jacket, cutting any length from 1 to 999,999.99 mm at ±0.2% (0.002×L). Full stripping reaches 200 mm at the head, and half stripping extends to 1,500 mm. Rated at 3,500 pieces per hour on single wire (900 pcs/h on sheathed cable), it programs on a 7-inch touchscreen in a 68 × 48 × 55 cm benchtop footprint.

Key features

Sixteen-wheel belt feed and a 7-inch interface run 0.75–30 mm² wire at 3,500 pieces per hour, dropping to about 900 on sheathed cable — the same platform the factory builds its heavier variants on
16-wheel belt drive grips the jacket over a long contact area — no embossing or scratches on soft PVC insulation
Half-strip mode up to 1,500 mm leaves the slug on the wire for tangle-free transport between stations
Digital pinch-roller height setting makes changeovers repeatable — recall a program instead of re-tuning rollers by feel

What it processes

Control cabinet and appliance harnesses using 0.75–30 mm² single and multi-core wire
Sheathed power cords and PVC cable prefabricated with jacket and core stripping in one pass
Wire processing shops consolidating cutting, jacket stripping and core stripping into one station

Suited for: single-core wire, multi-core cable and sheathed PVC cable from 0.75 to 30 mm² (max Φ18 mm) where cut-to-length and jacket stripping run in one automated cycle. Not suited for: thick power cable above 30 mm² — for that, pick the WM-1450 thick cable machine, which carries the same work to 150 mm² — or flat ribbon cable, which cuts, slits and strips on the WM-161PX.

If your parts also need bare windows opened along the middle of the run, the WM-190 middle stripping machine is the same 0.75–30 mm² platform — same Φ18 mm pass, same 3,500 pcs/hour, same footprint — with a rotary-knife servo axis added for up to 50 programmed mid-span windows per piece.

Unusual jackets are worth testing first: send 2–3 meters of your actual cable and we run it on this machine on video before you order.

WM-164 — common questions

Does it strip the inner cores of sheathed cable or only the jacket?

Be careful with this one. The manufacturer's specification row says jacket and inner conductor stripping, and we reproduce that row unchanged — but the same sheet gives only side A and side B strip lengths with no separate inner-core setting, and the sample photographs the factory supplies for this model show single-layer stripped ends only. On the evidence we have, treat it as a cut-and-strip machine for single-core and light sheathed work, and send us your actual cable if layered stripping is the requirement — we will run it and show you what this machine really does before you order.

What is the difference between full stripping and half stripping?

Full stripping pulls the insulation slug completely off the conductor. Half stripping cuts through and pulls the slug partway, leaving it on the wire tip so strands stay bundled and untwisted during transport — it also allows much longer strip windows, up to 1,500 mm on side A.

Can it handle thick power cable above 30 mm²?

No — 30 mm² through a Φ18 mm guide is the ceiling. For thick cable, the larger machines in the wire cutting and stripping category cover 6–70 mm² and 10–150 mm² with belt drives sized for heavy jackets.
