Peeling devices for XLPE cables - precise and safe in use
What are strippers for XLPE cables?
Peelers are specialised tools that enable the precise removal of insulation and semiconductor layers from XLPE-insulated medium and high-voltage cables. In contrast to simple cutting or stripping tools, they allow controlled, damage-free processing so that the conductors are optimally prepared for joint and end terminations.
What advantages do skiving tools offer for cable processing?
Precise cutting depth: Prevents damage to conductors or shields
Uniform surfaces: Ideal for joint assembly and contacting
Robust blades made from hardened special steel for a long service life
Easy handling even under construction site conditions
Compatibility with various cable diameters (typically 10 to over 160 mm)
This ensures not only the quality of the cable connection, but also operational safety in mains operation.
In which areas are stripping tools used?
Energy supply & network construction: preparation of XLPE cables for joints and terminations
Industrial plant construction: assembly of cables for switchgear and distribution systems
Service & maintenance: repairs and renovation of high-voltage cables
Controlled processing of the insulation is particularly important for high-voltage cables, as the slightest damage can severely impair operational safety.
Which accessories are useful?
We recommend the following for a complete system solution:
Stripping tools for the preparatory removal of the outer insulation layer
Hydraulic crimping tools for secure connections of cable lugs and connectors
Hydraulic power packs for energy supply in larger projects
How is quality assured?
All stripping tools are tested in accordance with our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system. This ensures that every tool fulfils the high requirements of the energy and industrial sectors - for long-term operational reliability and maximum precision.
With peeling tools from KW Hydraulik, XLPE cables can be processed quickly, safely and with repeat accuracy - perfect for network operators, industrial plant manufacturers and service teams.
