Laser Wire Stripping

Why are wires insulated?

Most wires are insulated in order to help prevent shorting, to protect wires from water and corrosion, and – in the case of medical applications  – to provide a smooth, slippery surface for comfort. Insulation also helps to reduce power leakage, increasing electrical efficiency.

Many manufacturers need to selectively remove some of the insulation to provide electrical contact points for downstream manufacturing processes. Lasers are ideal tools for wire stripping applications because laser wire stripping is non-contact, very repeatable, can selectively remove layers, can selectively remove areas and is easily automated.

Use lasers to strip magnet wire,  or to ablate insulation off guidewires.
