HSD HighSpeed Data Cable Stripping Machine

　　Explanation of HSD HighSpeed Data Cables and the Requirements for Stripping Them

　　1. What Is an HSD HighSpeed Data Cable?

　　HSD stands for HighSpeed Data, referring to a specialized connectorcable system designed for highbandwidth differential signal transmission. It is widely used in:

　　Automotive infotainment systems

　　Cameras, radars, ADAS

　　Automotive Ethernet, LVDS video signals

　　USB, highspeed communication modules

　　Key characteristics of HSD cables:

　　Controlled differential impedance (typically 100 Ω)

　　Multicore structure, usually 4 cores / 2 pairs

　　Full shielding (braided shield + foil shield)

　　Excellent EMC/EMI performance

　　Supports data rates up to around 6 Gbps

　　Because of this structure, HSD cables require highly stable, precise, and nondestructive processing during stripping and crimping.

　　2. Why HSD Cable Stripping Is Difficult

　　Compared with ordinary singlecore wires, HSD cables are far more complex due to their:

　　✔ Multilayer structure

　　Jacket

　　Braided shield

　　Foil shield / grounding layer

　　Twisted differential pairs

　　Inner insulation and conductors

　　✔ Sensitive signal characteristics

　　Any damage to insulation, conductors, or shielding will affect:

　　Impedance stability

　　EMC performance

　　Signal attenuation or reflection

　　Crosstalk and noise

　　✔ Tight tolerance requirements

　　Stripping length is typically short (1–10 mm), and precision is crucial. Manual stripping often causes inconsistent quality.

　　Therefore, HSD cables require specialized stripping equipment designed specifically for shielded, multicore, highprecision applications.

　　3. Requirements for an HSD Cable Stripping Machine

　　When selecting or designing a stripping machine for HSD cables, it must include the following capabilities:

　　1) Highprecision striplength control

　　Stripping tolerance must be extremely tight (≤0.1–0.2 mm).

　　Required for stable impedance and consistent shielding exposure.

　　2) Suitable for smallgauge multicore wires

　　HSD internal conductors are typically thin (0.1–0.5 mm²), requiring finecontrol cutting tools.

　　3) Multilayer stripping capability

　　The machine must be able to strip:

　　Outer jacket

　　Braided shield

　　Foil shield

　　Inner insulation

　　…without damaging the inner twisted pairs.

　　4) Shieldfriendly stripping

　　The equipment must remove jacket and shielding cleanly while preserving:

　　Shielding integrity

　　Grounding braid length

　　Symmetry of differential pairs

　　5) Stable repeatability / automation support

　　HSD cable production (especially automotive) requires:

　　Automatic or semiautomatic operation

　　Parameter memory

　　High repeatability for mass production

　　6) High accuracy and strict quality control

　　Because HSD cables carry highspeed differential signals, even small processing errors can cause:

　　EMI leakage

　　Impedance mismatch

　　Transmission errors

　　Therefore, an HSDspecific stripping machine is essential for stable production.
