Less Time, Less Exertion, Higher Performance for Control Cabinet Manufacturing

How can professional tools streamline control cabinet manufacturing?

Digitalized and automated processes are shaping the day-to-day work of control cabinet manufacturing more and more. All the work steps are designed to increase efficiency and optimize processes. Yet despite all this digitization, a great deal of the work in circuit cabinet manufacturing still involves manual assembly! The fact that over 70 % of the installation work relies on manual activity makes optimization of mechanical component placement and wiring all the more important. Wherever stripping, crimping and measuring cables and wires are required, high-quality ergonomic tools say significant time and make work processes more efficient. WAGO professional tools not only help reduce defects – they also make the work faster and easier!

Professional Tools for Every Job

WAGO tools boast a functionally and ergonomically refined design backed with quality certified per DIN standards. Tools that electricians and control cabinet constructors can trust!

Sheath Stripping

Fast and safe cable and wire stripping is one of the most important tasks in circuit cabinet installation. Titanium nitride blade coating for low wear and non-slip handle areas for a solid, secure grip are among the the advantages offered by the WAGO professional cable strippers.

Stripping Pliers for Control and Sensor Cables

Quick insulation stripping on sensor/control lines without damage to the single strands
Not necessary to set cable diameter
Easy stripping even over longer distances
Long service life, thanks to replaceable cutting blades
For sensor/actuator cables, highly flexible TPE-U cables, PUR cables, PUR/PVC cables, PVC cables, shielded and unshielded, multi-core cables

Cable Knife

5 exchangeable cable brackets: One tool for a wide diameter range (4-70 mm / 12-2/0 AWG)
Clamping arm and viewing window for precise round cutting
Ergonomic handling with two-component grip
Due to unexposed blade, high safety level during and after work (pockets, toolbox)
Variable cable and hook blade settings for different cable types

In-Socket Cable Stripper

Extra-long design and improved force transfer simplify stripping of insulation in deep distribution boxes, minimizing the risk of injury.
Strips all standard round cables: Ø 8 to 13 mm (1–3/0 AWG) e.g., NYM 3 x 1.5 mm (0.06 in.) to NYM 5 x 2.5 mm (0.098 in.) (PVC- and halogen-free); ground cables up to 5 x 1.5 mm (0.06 in).
The novel four-blade design allows a precise cut with less effort.
Integrated length scale (interior) for precise wire stripping
No manual cutting depth adjustment needed (so no damage to conductor strands)!

Universal Cable Stripper

Simple cable guide for quick and easy longitudinal cut; especially expedient for halogen-free conductors
Outlined blade for stripping 0.2 to 4.0 mm² (24-12 AWG) wires
Universal knife with locking push knob for on-the-job safety
Strips all standard round cables: Ø 8 to 13 mm (1-3/0 AWG) e.g., NYM 3 x 1.5 mm (0.06 in.) up to NYM 5 x 2.5 mm (0.098 in.) (PVC- and halogen-free); ground cables up to to 5 x 1.5 mm (0.06 in).
The novel four-blade design gives you the most precise cut with less effort.

Data Cable Stripper

Faster, easier stripping; especially for PVC-insulated data cables with thin insulation (e.g., Cat 5, 6, 7 and 8 twisted-pair cables)
One side for stripping the outer insulation and the other for stripping the foil shielding
Integrated interior length scale enables precise insulation stripping.
The novel two-blade design gives the most precise cut with less effort.
No need to adjust cut depth to the respective diameter – the specially-set blades cleanly cut through the outer insulation and the foil shielding too is accurately gripped and removed.

Stripping

Our wire stripper Quickstrip Vario (206-1125) is designed to handle conductors from 0.03 to 16 mm² (32-5 AWG).

Automatic stripping pliers with integrated cutting function enable fast, smooth conductor handling in a wide cross section range from 0.03 to 16 mm² (32-5 AWG).
Adjustable partial stripping – since part of the cut insulation remains at the end of the conductor, nothing else is needed to protect the splice and the remainder is easily pulled off before final connection.
No ferrules needed when conductor is connected to a WAGO rail-mounted terminal block with spring connection technology
Fine adjustment for removing thin and thick insulation
Replacement blades (standard, V, oval blades) can be stored in the special compartment integrated in the handle.

Crimping

Crimping tools like Variocrimp 4 and 16 round out the WAGO tool program. (206-1204 and 206-1216)

Automatic adjustment to the conductor cross-section
With a squared crimp form, the conductor position needs no unwieldy twisting to connect or disconnect at the clamping point.
The pliers jaws open automatically after crimping.
Crimping can be performed from either side (for left- or right-handed users).
Gas-tight crimping ensures secure connections.

NEW: Standards-Compliant Test Probes – Secure, Flexible, Precise!

Because of the conductor insulation, typical test probes cannot always be inserted into the rail-mount terminal block test slots. To measure current and voltage in compact terminal blocks, electricians used to need suitable adapters to reach the often narrow test slots with measurement instruments. WAGO now offers the right solution: Optimized test probes with diameter of 2 mm that enable direct and standards-compliant measurement in CAT III and CAT IV applications – without an additional adapter.

Current and voltage measurement with no adapter – with the specially developed test probe, test plug adapters are no longer necessary.
The especially small removable test probes measure currents up to 10 A.
