Cable processing device

A cable processing device including at least one processing station for processing cable ends of cables, a cable conveying device running along a machine longitudinal axis for transporting the cables to the at least one processing station in a direction of the machine longitudinal axis, and a cable changer arranged in a region of the cable conveying device for selectively suppling the cables to the at least one processing station, the cable changer comprising:

• two guide units for guiding and holding one of the cables each;
• each of the guide units being movable between an associated inoperative position and an active position, wherein the guide unit when positioned in the associated inoperative position is outside the cable conveying device and spaced apart from the machine longitudinal axis and the guide unit when positioned in the active position is coaxial with the machine longitudinal axis to produce an operative connection to the cable conveying device;
• and
• wherein the guide units are movable independently of each other between the associated inoperative position and the active position.
