Stripping is a function of the Wire (W) type.

The stripping time for each type is stored in the aPriori machine tables, and ranges from approximately 12 seconds for a Single Conductor Stranded Insulated Wire to 330 seconds for Triax Cable, using a manual stripper tool.

Corresponding times range from 2 seconds to 55 seconds when using an automatic stripping machine.

For automatic machines, there is an additional setup time added for unique part numbers.
