Laser Wire Stripping Machine
Description
The stripping of wire insulation or coatings in order to provide electrical contact points for cardiac rhythm management, neuromodulation devices, or other downstream manufacturing processes is a common requirement in the medical device manufacturing industry. Moving from manual intensive processes to an automatic wire stripping machine offers great gains in productivity and quality.
AMADA WELD TECH’s laser wire stripping machine is a fast and efficient method for removing partial or full sections of materials and tapering edges. The laser is well suited for material removal as required for the stripping of outer layers of polymers from small diameter wires for many medical device applications. The laser offers a process that is non contact, very repeatable, can selectively remove layers, can selectively remove areas and is easily automated. The laser transforms a key step in the manufacturing process to a lean operation, reducing and optimizing human-dependent processes and providing consistent part quality.
For each material, wire diameter and feature requirement there is a suitable laser that will match the criteria. From the sealed CO2 laser to UV nanosecond lasers and even to femtosecond lasers all offer different processing capability. Our in-house applications labs have all of these different types of lasers enabling our engineers to select the best laser for the application. As with all AMADA WELD TECH systems projects, everything starts with the application which serves as the foundation to the system configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions
The purpose of a laser wire stripping machine is to remove the insulation or coatings from wires in order to provide electrical contact points for various medical device manufacturing processes.
A laser wire stripping machine uses a laser to selectively remove layers of polymers from small diameter wires. The laser is non-contact, repeatable, and can be easily automated.
AMADA WELD TECH offers a range of lasers for wire stripping, including sealed CO2 lasers, UV nanosecond lasers, and femtosecond lasers. The best laser for the application is selected based on the material, wire diameter, and feature requirements.
Laser wire stripping machines can have features such as off-axis or through-the-lens vision, control software with a graphical interface, optional laser monitoring, stage, gantry, or rotary motion options, galvo steered laser, debris management, and custom tooling.
Laser wire stripping offers benefits such as increased productivity, improved quality, non-contact processing, selective layer removal, and automation capabilities. It reduces human-dependent processes and provides consistent part quality.
