Wire stripping and crimping machine WT series

fully-automatic

Overview Fully automated wire processing including length-cutting, stripping, crimping with wire end ferrules and project-specific labelling. Supports order-specific picking into a dedicated storage system, output in wire rail sequence, chain-bundle output or just-in-time delivery via Wire Handling System (WHS).

Features

• Available in six versions (L5 R, L5 B, L5 T, L10 R, L10 B, L10 T)
• Wire cross-sections: 0.5–2.5 mm² or 0.5–6 mm² depending on variant
• Three output options: wire rail system, chain bundle, Wire Handling System
• Linear-controlled stripping and crimping allowing full or partial stripping
• Advanced wire routing with infeed block equipped with RFID memory for secure, repeatable setup

Benefits

• Time savings reported up to 50% when combined with Rittal Wire Terminal and Eplan Smart Wiring
• Accelerates production through full automation of wire processing
• Processing operations reported up to 11× faster (stated)
• Typical amortisation from approx. 150 enclosures/year (~2.5 years stated)
• Consistent high quality of processed wires

Product variants

• Wire Terminal WT L5 R — wire rail system; processes 0.5–2.5 mm²; finished wires guided to rails in correct sequence; rails can be locked front and rear
