Lämpökuorintatyökaluja

Lämpökuorintatyökaluja, known in English as thermal strippers, are specialized tools designed for efficiently removing insulation from electrical wires using heat. These tools typically consist of a heating element that reaches a specific, controlled temperature. When the wire is passed through or held against the heated element, the insulation softens and can be easily pulled or slid off. This method offers advantages over mechanical strippers in certain applications.

The primary benefit of thermal strippers is their ability to strip insulation without damaging the conductor underneath. Unlike cutting or scraping tools, the heat-induced softening process minimizes the risk of nicking or weakening the delicate wire strands. This is particularly important for fine-gauge wires, stranded conductors, and applications where conductor integrity is critical. Furthermore, thermal stripping can be faster for certain types of insulation, especially those that become very pliable when heated.

Thermal strippers are available in various designs. Some are handheld devices with adjustable temperature settings, allowing users to customize the heat for different insulation materials like PVC, Teflon, or rubber. Others are benchtop units designed for high-volume production environments. The selection of a thermal stripper often depends on the type and size of wires being processed, the volume of work, and specific insulation requirements. Safety precautions, such as proper ventilation to dissipate fumes and avoiding prolonged exposure to heat, are important when using these tools.
