Medical MC4 Cable MultiStage Stripping Equipment

　　As medical devices continue to move toward higher precision and miniaturization, wire harness processing is no longer about simply “removing insulation.”

　　It now demands extreme accuracy in dimensions, reliability, and consistency.

　　Medical MC4 cables are a typical example of this highrequirement category.

　　I. What Is a Medical MC4 Cable?

　　Medical MC4 cables are commonly used for internal signal transmission or lowvoltage power connections in medical equipment.

　　Their key value lies not in high current capacity, but in stability, safety, and repeatability.

　　They typically feature:

　　• Multicore or composite structures

　　• Outer jacket plus inner insulation layers

　　•Multistage stripping requirements (not just a single end strip)

　　• Small diameters with fine internal structures

　　• Extremely high requirements for conductor integrity

　　In medical devices, MC4 cables are widely used in:

　　• Internal connections of monitoring equipment

　　• Medical sensor wire harnesses

　　• Precision control and signal transmission modules

　　If cable ends are processed improperly, it may lead to unstable signals or, in severe cases, directly compromise device safety.

　　II. Key Challenges in Stripping Medical MC4 Cables

　　The difficulty of stripping medical MC4 cables is not about hardness, but about precision.

　　1. Multistage stripping with minimal positional tolerance

　　MC4 cables often require:

　　• Removal of the outer jacket

　　• Sectional stripping of inner insulation layers

　　• Precise length positioning at each stripping point

　　Any deviation can affect subsequent assembly.

　　2. Small cable diameter and high risk of conductor damage

　　With small conductor crosssections and fine strands, even slight overcutting may result in:

　　• Damaged copper strands

　　• Hidden internal defects

　　• Reduced longterm reliability

　　III. Why Specialized MultiStage Stripping Equipment Is Essential

　　Based on the structural characteristics of medical MC4 cables, suitable stripping machines must offer two core capabilities:

　　multistage stripping and highprecision control.
