on of insulated end sleeves on reels.
It uses end sleeves complying with DIN 46228 Part 4 with cross-sections ranging from 0.5 to
2.5 mm2 with a stripping length of 8 mm. Due to the short cycle times (1.5 s) and simple changing of
cross-sections (below 10 s) the FC-100 is not only suitable for use in workshops but also in complex
cable production systems.
