Anti-Accumulation Wire Conductor Process Blade and Assembly

A system for cutting wire, comprising:

• a first blade body having a first cutting edge;
• a second blade body having a second cutting edge;
• a first slidable surface on the first blade body that slidably engages a second slidable surface on the second blade body to allow relative movement therebetween to permit the first cutting edge and the second cutting edge to cut a wire;
• and
• at least one of the first blade body and the second blade body having a hollow to hold one or more cut wire particles to reduce interference by the cut wire particles with the slidable surfaces.

A cutting blade for cutting a wire, a portion of which includes aluminum, the cutting blade comprising

• a blade body having a front face and a back face;
• a cutting edge on the blade body;
• a cutting face on the front face of the blade body extending from the cutting edge;
• a slidable surface on the back face of the blade body for engagement with an opposing surface, the slidable surface allowing relative movement between the blade body and the opposing surface to permit the cutting edge to cut the wire;
• at least a portion of the cutting face and the slidable surface being polished to provide a high degree of finish to reduce the accumulation of cut wire particles on the cutting face and the slidable surface;
• at least a portion of the cutting face and the slidable surface including a coating to reduce the accumulation of cut wire particles on the cutting face and the slidable surface;
• and
• a hollow in the back face of the blade body to hold one or more cut wire particles to reduce interference by the cut wire particles with the slidable surface.
