Flat Cable Slitting and Stripping Machine, 2–12 Pins, Two-Unit Set WM-1227C
The WM-1227C is the two-unit bench version of our flat-cable slitting and stripping machine: the cutter-stripper head plus a separate straightener unit on the infeed side. It cuts 2–12 pin ribbon to length, slits the conductors apart over 0.1–150 mm, strips 25 mm at the head and 80 mm at the tail with up to 15 mid-cable windows, at 3,000–8,000 pieces an hour. Same specification as the WM-1227 and WM-1227B, quoted separately.

Key features
- Separate straightener unit ahead of the head takes the set out of coiled ribbon before it reaches the guide — the reason to choose this build when cable comes off a tight reel
- Slits and strips 2–12 pin flat cable in one pass, conductors separated and stripped for the connector
- 80 mm tail strip and 25 mm head strip for long IDC and screw-terminal fan-outs; up to 15 mid-cable windows
- 4-wheel drive with adjustable cable pressure and a 0.1 mm stepper, so thin ribbon feeds without skew
- Bilingual LCD; export units ship with the English interface and manual, voltage set for your country
What it processes
- 2–12 pin ribbon that must be slit and stripped in one pass
- Parallel cable whose tails need 25 / 80 mm rather than a 15 mm short strip
- Ribbon supplied on tight coils that needs straightening before the guide
Suited for: 2–12 pin flat cable that must be straightened, slit and stripped in one pass. Not suited for: round single-core — WM-167. 10–120 mm² flat power ribbon — WM-161PX. Short 15 mm tails only — WM-1220. Other builds of this specification — WM-1227 (stand and belt), WM-1227B (single bench box).
Send 2–3 metres of the actual ribbon. The 3 × 20 mm guide is what decides fit, not the pin count on the label.

WM-1227C — common questions
How is this different from the WM-1227 and WM-1227B?
Same specification, three builds. WM-1227 is the head on a stand with a conveyor belt; WM-1227B is the single bench box. This page is the two-unit set with a separate straightener. Each is quoted separately — tell us which page you are looking at.
How is this different from the WM-1220?
WM-1220 strips 0–15 mm, 13 windows, 3,000–5,000 pcs/h with a 100 × 22 × 2.8 mm guide. This machine strips 25 / 80 mm, 15 windows, 3,000–8,000 pcs/h through a 3 × 20 mm guide.
Will it nick 26 AWG PTFE?
It is built for 0.1–10 mm² conductors in flat cable, and PTFE ribbon is a sample question. Send 2–3 metres and we run it on video before you order.
Round hookup wire?
The flat guide is for flat cable. Round wire belongs on the WM-167.
Where do blades come from?
Blades and the guide tube are the wear parts. Every quote lists them with unit price and the location they ship from.
