Abstract
The invention relates to a method for removing an exposed shielding of a cable, according to which a cutting tool is advanced into a cutting position on an outer surface of the shielding. It is provided that a gaseous medium is injected into the cable in order to apply a radially outwardly acting force to the shielding, in such a manner that the shielding is incised by a cuter of the cutting tool.
Claims20
A method for removing an exposed shielding from a cable comprising the steps of:
- providing a cutting tool that has a cutter;
- advancing the cutting tool into a cutting position adjacent an outer surface of the exposed shielding;
- providing a gaseous medium. and injecting the gaseous medium into a free end of the cable to apply a radially outwardly acting force upon the exposed shielding so that the exposed shielding is incised by the cutter of the cutting tool.
A device for removing an exposed shielding at an end of a cable comprising:
- a cutting tool having a cutter that can be advanced to an outer surface of the exposed shielding;
- and
- a gas guide;
- and
- a blower, and wherein the blower operatively communicates with the gas guide to provide a pressurized gaseous medium thereto, and the gas guide is positioned and oriented relative to a free end of the cable to inject the pressurized a gaseous medium beneath the exposed shielding so that the exposed shielding is subjected to a radially outwardly acting force, in such a manner that the cutter of the cutting tool incises the outwardly pressed exposed shielding.
