Kappa 350 Cutting and stripping machine

Product catalog summary

Overview
The Kappa 350 is a high-performance automatic cut and strip machine designed for processing large wire cross-sections. It utilizes a double-blade principle to handle round conductors up to 120 mm² with a maximum outer diameter of 35 mm. The machine offers either a belt drive or various drive rollers for wire transport, with a switchable pressure unit to adjust contact pressure according to the processing step. Advanced sensor technology ensures precision and minimizes cut losses, especially in larger cross-sections.

Key Features

Processes wire cross-sections from 2.5 to 120 mm² (AWG 14 to AWG 5/0).
Equipped with a touchscreen interface for easy and flexible operation.
Innovative sensor technology aids in setup and process monitoring, reducing wire loss.
Supports integration with upstream and downstream devices, including TopWin connection for networking.

Functionality
The machine's powerful belt drive ensures careful processing across the full cross-section range. Sensors combined with a length measurement encoder provide optimal process monitoring and accuracy, minimizing precuts. The sensor technology includes automatic conductor detection using an inductive measuring principle and optical measurement with lasers and CCD lines for outer diameter checks.

Peripherals and Interfaces
Standardized integration of wire feeder systems, printers, and active deposit units is facilitated. The machine supports data backup, software updates, and CSV data import via USB. The "TopTouch" touchscreen software, based on the TopWin structure, enhances user experience and functionality, allowing for inkjet printing, sequence production, and part list processing. The optional WPCS interface enables networking and integration into existing production processes.
