Rotary Blade Cutting and Stripping Machine for Braided and Shielded Cable WM-184X

Name: Rotary Blade Cutting and Stripping Machine for Braided and Shielded Cable WM-184X
Brand: Wiromac
SKU: WM-184X

CE Certified HS Code 8463.90 0.75–30 mm² 1,500 pcs/h

The WM-184X cuts and strips shielded, braided and multi-layer cable from 0.75 to 30 mm² (up to Φ18 mm) using a rotary blade head with 2 or 4 circling cutters — the clean way to open a jacket and score a copper braid without nicking the cores underneath. Each layer is programmed separately on the 7-inch touchscreen with full or half strip, up to 1,500 mm half-strip on side A. Sixteen belt-drive wheels feed the cable without marking it, holding 0.002×L length tolerance at up to 1,500 pieces per hour.

Key features

Rotary blades circle the cable to score braid and shield layers cleanly — no torn strands or nicked cores the way drag blades leave on shielded cable
Program each layer separately — jacket, braid and insulation each get their own diameter, strip depth and full or half strip setting
Half strip up to 1,500 mm keeps the shield captive on the cable for fold-back grounding and later termination steps
16-wheel belt feeding grips soft jackets over a long contact area, so even silicone-sheathed cable comes through without pressure marks

What it processes

Shielded power and signal cable for EV, energy-storage and industrial harnesses (0.75 – 30 mm²)
Braided screen cable where the shield must be scored and removed or folded back cleanly
Multi-layer jacketed cable that a standard single-blade stripper cannot open layer by layer

Suited for: braided and shielded cable from 0.75 to 30 mm² (up to Φ18 mm OD) where the shield layer must be opened cleanly — EV and energy-storage signal cable, screened control cable, multi-layer jacketed wire. Not suited for: plain unshielded hookup wire — for that, pick the WM-167 benchtop cut and strip machine, which runs 0.1–10 mm² wire far faster — while micro-coax belongs on the WM-2106A multi-layer coax stripper, Ø0.81–7 mm.

Shielded cable varies a lot in braid density and jacket hardness. Send 2–3 meters of your actual cable and we program the layers and run it on this machine on video before you commit to the order.

WM-184X — common questions

How does rotary stripping differ from a standard cut and strip machine?

A standard machine draws a fixed V-blade along the cable, which works on plain insulation but tears braided shields and can nick cores. The WM-184X spins 2 or 4 blades around the cable at a programmed depth, so the jacket or braid is scored evenly around its full circumference before it is pulled off — clean edges on every layer.

Can it leave the braid on the cable instead of removing it?

Yes. Half strip mode scores the layer and slides it forward without pulling it off — up to 1,500 mm on side A and 300 mm on side B. Operators use this to keep the shield captive for fold-back grounding or to protect cores during transport between stations.

What is it not built for?

It does not process micro-coaxial cable below 0.75 mm² — see the coaxial cable processing machines for that work. And for plain unshielded hookup wire, the standard cut and strip machines in this category run faster per piece at lower cost.
