Manually operated slitter can cut single slit in flat conductor cable to any desired length. Lateral position of flat conductor cable is adjusted with aid of optical magnifier and cursor glass to ensure that slit is accurately placed between conductors. Multiple slits may be made by repeating procedure for single slit.
Hand-operated tool positions and seats window piece and conductor spacer onto conductors of two stripped cables during process of terminating cables with molded plug. Tool accommodates cables up to 3 in. wide and is used in conjunction with folding tools.
Testing device monitors continuity and resistance of each circuit, it includes springloaded stationary fixture which holds plug, and moving fixture which is driven by small electric motor and is geared to mate and unmate connector 10 times per minute.
Sprue removal operation is accomplished by positioning plug on tool bed, adjusting blades, and moving handle down for cutting process. Blades are raised to remove trimmed plug.
Assemblies consist of window piece, conductor spacer, insulator, outer seal, and molded portion that integrates all components. Preparation of FCC for molded plug termination requires that terminated ends of conductors in each cable be accurately folded simultaneously into spacer end and groove.
Device tests electric continuity of flat cable conductors, FCC, in temperature controlled environment. Test method is described.
Stripper removes insulation to any desired depth by adjusting the distance between the blade and the plates on either side of the flat conductor cable, FCC.
Stripper incorporates a blade which is electrically heated to a controlled temperature. Heated blade softens and strips insulation from cable while paper ribbon removes insulation material and keeps blade clean for next operation.
Rotary stripper removes narrow strips of insulation and shielding to any desired depth. Unshielded cables are stripped on both sides with one stroke, shielded cables are stripped in steps of different depths.
