set builder oomlout—we’ve featured their servo bot—needed to create a great deal of precut wires. After cutting as well as stripping much more than their fair share, they chose to apply some heavy engineering to make things easier. They built a device to do the task for them. It has three primary components: a servo driven cable feeder to determine the length, a two servo cable stripper that utilizes an exacto blade, as well as lastly a cable cutter made of snips as well as a drill motor. The device is managed utilizing an Arduino. They’ve published all the plans as well as code to Thingiverse incase anybody else wishes to develop a similar device for their own set shop. A video of the device is embedded below.
