As soon as volumes increase or tolerance requirements tighten, hand strippers and bench-top devices reach their limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Metzner AM 2000 Series is designed precisely for this transition: fully automatic compact-class cutting and stripping machines that deliver high precision and easy operation \u2013 without the complexity of a large-scale machine. All models operate fully automatically and come standard with a spring-loaded belt feed that automatically compensates for material variations and ensures consistently precise cuts \u2013 regardless of whether the cable comes fresh from the drum or exhibits slight ovality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AM 2800: The Proven Foundation of the Series<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The AM 2800 is the classic entry-level solution in the series \u2013 compact, reliable, and proven many times over in practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Wire cross-section:<\/strong> 0.14 mm\u00b2 to 6 mm\u00b2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cable diameter:<\/strong> up to 6 mm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Processing:<\/strong> Braided cables and wires, single-core and multi-core<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Standard functions:<\/strong> Cutting to length, single-sided and double-sided stripping, partial stripping, mid-span jacket removal<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Interface:<\/strong> RS-232 as standard \u2013 PC-based processing and printer connection possible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Operation:<\/strong> All cutting and stripping parameters programmable via the machine control panel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Material compensation:<\/strong> Spring-loaded belt feed automatically compensates for material variations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>What sets the AM 2800 apart from many competitors is its operating philosophy: all processing steps are programmed via a few settings on the control panel. Predefined functions provide easy access to a wide range of processing options without requiring in-depth machine knowledge. In practice, this means: shorter training time, fewer operator errors, and faster changeover between different wire types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New in the Range: The AM 2900 Series<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With the AM 2900, Metzner expands the series to a new performance level. The centrepiece of the new model range is the Metzner multi-blade module integrated as standard \u2013 a combination of V-blades and radius blades that enables cutting to length, stripping, and slitting in a single operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1050\" class=\"gb-media-57ad78c4\" alt=\"\" title=\"Metzner-AM-2900\" src=\"https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2900.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2900.webp 1800w, https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2900-460x268.webp 460w, https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2900-1024x597.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2900-768x448.webp 768w, https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2900-1536x896.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>The result is precise, crush-free cuts and clean cable ends \u2013 even with longer cable lengths and more demanding cross-sections. The AM 2900 processes cables with cross-sections up to 35 mm\u00b2 and lengths up to 999 m, with a cable diameter of up to 15 mm and a maximum feed speed of 180 m\/min.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-accent-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-55cce69ccd889ce95c2f7a82280d7f9b\"><strong>AM 2900: Cutting to length, stripping, and slitting in a single operation \u2013 with multi-blade module as standard.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AM 2950 \u2013 For Particularly Complex Cable Types<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The AM 2950 complements the portfolio with a rotary module included as standard. This enables the processing of particularly demanding cable constructions such as coaxial or multi-layer cables \u2013 with high precision, cleanly, and without manual rework. What previously required multiple process steps and machines is now combined into a single seamless automatic process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1050\" class=\"gb-media-c981fc94\" alt=\"\" title=\"Metzner-AM-2950\" src=\"https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2950.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2950.webp 1800w, https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2950-460x268.webp 460w, https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2950-1024x597.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2950-768x448.webp 768w, https:\/\/cetec.co.at\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/Metzner-AM-2950-1536x896.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Automatic Inner Conductor Processing: One Process Step Eliminated<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most significant advantages of the multi-blade module becomes evident with multi-core cables: in combination with the module, the AM 2900 Series machines can fully automatically strip cables with up to six inner conductors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The workflow is entirely automated: after removing the outer jacket, spring-loaded clamping jaws position the inner conductors precisely. The stripping blade then performs the partial or full strip \u2013 accurately, reproducibly, and without manual intervention. What previously had to be organised as separate operations now runs as a single seamless, automatic process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For operations that regularly process multi-core cables, this means: less handling, fewer error sources, and a significantly faster total throughput time per batch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Model Is Right for Which Application?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The AM 2000 Series offers the right model for different requirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>AM 2800<\/strong> \u2013 Ideal for getting started with automation. Cable preparation up to 6 mm\u00b2, medium production runs, varying wire types with manageable changeover time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>AM 2900<\/strong> \u2013 For operations with higher requirements regarding cross-section (up to 35 mm\u00b2), speed (up to 180 m\/min), and process integration. Ideal when cutting to length, stripping, and slitting are required in a single step.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>AM 2950<\/strong> \u2013 The choice for complex cable constructions such as coaxial or multi-layer cables that require a rotary cutting unit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For applications with even larger cross-sections or specific special processes, further model ranges from the Metzner portfolio are available \u2013 CETEC Systems will advise you on the right selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PC Connection and Printer Integration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The standard RS-232 interface enables integration into PC-based production environments. Programs can be created, saved, and transferred to the machine on a computer. Additionally, a printer can be connected to label wires directly after processing \u2013 an important step towards a complete process chain without media discontinuity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The AM 2000 Series at CETEC Systems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As an authorised distribution partner of Metzner Maschinenbau for Austria, we support you from the first question through to ongoing production.
