Source summary
The equipment should automate feeding, straightening, clamping, cutting and stripping cable insulation/sheath specimens for IS 10810 Parts 2, 7 and 33 and IS 7098 Parts 1 and 2. It should accommodate PVC, XLPE and HDPE samples, adjust preparation using diameter sensing and allow test-method selection through PLC/HMI controls. Specimen ejection, waste handling, enclosures and interlocks are included. Consistency and lower error are design targets, not guarantees.
