Introduction
Cutting
Cutting
B
A large number of cables and conductors in many different
types and designs are used to connect electrical and electronic
components. The cables and wires must be accurately prepared
for the various types of connection. The quality of the cutting
process is therefore of critical importance. Mechanical efficiency
together with the special cutting pattern reduces the manual
force required to a minimum.
Weidmüller is a specialist in the cutting of copper or aluminium
cables. The product selection ranges from cutting tools for
small cross-sections (with direct transmission of force) to cutting
tools for large diameters. Weidmüller’s wide range of cutting
tools fulfils all the criteria for professional cable preparation. The
demands Weidmüller makes of its products can be summarised
simply: a smooth, straight cut without deforming the conductor.
Users profit directly from this philosophy, whilst maintaining
ease of use.
B.2
Cutting
B
At Weidmüller the term “cutting” refers to the severing of
cables, wires and conductors of copper or aluminium with an
appropriate tool for the application.
The requirement for all cutting tools is to perform a smooth,
straight cut without deforming the conductor.
Movement of the blades
We differentiate between two basic cutting processes:
• Push cut
• Draw cut
According to DIN 8588, experts differentiate between shear
cutting, wedge-action cutting, tearing and breaking.
Shear cutting is employed particularly in the cutting of cables,
wires and conductors. Cutting tools with cross blades should
perform an oblique cut and operate without play.
In push cut, the cutting
movement is perpendicular
between tool and workpiece.
The essential quality characteristics for professional cutting
tools are a cutting edge shape which is suited to, and optimised for, the corresponding application, so that the manual
forces required for cutting remain low. This allows singlehanded operation.
Tools by Weidmüller comply with all requirements imposed
on professional cutting tools.
In draw cut, the cutting
movement is oblique to the
tool.
Position of the blades
Clean cut
In position 1 the blades act
directly and over the whole
length, i.e. considerable force
is required.
Insulation
Conductor
An “unclean” cut may have the following appearance:
Conductor sheared off
Conductor pulled out
In position 2, the blades cross
as in a pair of scissors, the cut
is therefore “offset” and requires
less force.

The IP protection classes for housings, cable glands, heavy-duty
connectors and industrial Ethernet connectors can only be
maintained under two conditions: the sheet metal must not be
bent during the punching process and the size of the punchedout holes must correspond precisely with the specifications. The
IE-KO-HAT hydraulic sheet metal hole puncher, together with its
accessories, guarantees you the highest quality workmanship
available. It ensures that the connector fits precisely with the
punched-out holes so that you can fulfill the proper IP protection
class requirements.
The hydraulic hole puncher punches
out precise holes for accommodating
metric and PG cable glands.
Automatic centre punching at the drill
points when punching out holes for
heavy-duty connectors.
