Abstract
Apparatus for stripping the insulation from the end of an electrical conductor, comprises a pair of clamping jaws for clamping the electrical conductor therebetween; a pair of cutting blades mounted to one side of the clamping jaws for cutting the insulation while the conductor is clamped by the clamping jaws; a drive for driving the clamping jaws and cutting blades; and displacing means driven by the drive for effecting relative movement between the clamping jaws and cutting blades in order to strip the cut insulation from the ends of the conductor. The pair of cutting blades are carried by a support pivotably mounted with respect to the clamping jaws. The displacing means pivots the cutting blades support away from the clamping jaws to strip the cut insulation from the end of the conductor.
