Abstract
A cable processing system includes a cable processing tool rotatable about a first axis, a first rotary actuator and a rotating assembly operatively connected to the first rotary actuator. The rotating assembly includes a planetary gearset and simultaneously rotates the cable processing tool about the first axis and a second axis, distinct from the first axis, in response to rotation of the first rotary actuator.
Claims20
A cable processing system, comprising:
- a cable processing tool rotatable about a first axis;
- a first rotary actuator;
- and
- a rotating assembly operatively connected to a rotating output of the first rotary actuator, the rotating assembly is configured to simultaneously rotate the cable processing tool about the first axis and a second axis in response to rotation of the first rotary, wherein the second axis is distinct from the first axis.
