Patent attributes
A device (100) for stripping an outer covering (141) of a cable (140) includes a base (110) having a shaft (111) coupled thereto, a laser generator (130) configured for emitting a laser beam and a rotating arm (120). The shaft defines a central axis configured for coaxial alignment with the cable. The laser generator is arranged at rest relative to the rotating arm. The rotating arm includes at least one light directing member configured for directing the laser beam emitted from the laser generator to impinge upon a circumference of the outer covering of the cable. The rotating arm is rotatable relative to the central axis associated with the shaft in a manner such that the circumference of the outer covering of the cable can be impinged upon by the laser beam thus stripping the outer covering of the cable.
