At Alleima, our stripping process is engineered to remove polymer insulation coatings from fine medical and specialty wire with exceptional precision. Stripping exposes the underlying conductor cleanly, preserving mechanical and electrical properties while preparing the wire for seamless integration into downstream processes.
Whether you require exposed leads for welding, bonding, or connectorization, our process delivers clean, accurate results that meet your most demanding device assembly requirements.
Our expertise
Length control
We offer stripped lengths ranging from 5 to 100 mm (0.2 to 3.9 in.), with tight tolerances tailored to your specific application. Tolerance depends on strip length, wire diameter, alloy, and coating type. Our process is designed to ensure consistency across small or large batch production.
Compatibility across coatings and alloys
Stripping can be performed on most coatings provided by Alleima, across a wide range of medical and specialty alloys. We evaluate each material combination to ensure effective removal without damaging the underlying conductor or compromising performance.
Process flexibility
Our stripping methods are adaptable to different wire geometries and coatings, enabling preparation for bonding, welding, and connectorization. We also support integration of stripped wires into advanced assembly workflows, minimizing handling and improving production efficiency.
