CAMF4/40-90-BBCF are multi function cable jointing tools manufactured by Alroc and used by MV-HV jointers to remove the semi-con screen and XLPE insulation to prepare the cable ready for the installation of joints, terminations or connectors. The CAMF4/40-90-BBCF allows the user to remove the bonded semiconductor and remove the insulation from medium and high voltage cables.
Bonded semiconductor removal is a steady process shaping the cable round the insulation with a constant diameter over the insulation which in turn prevents the blade from digging into the insulation. Insulation removal has a back iron that helps the user to tune the pitch of the tool making the rotation of the tool easy by the HV Jointer when removing the XLPE insulation from medium/high voltage cables including 66kV, 132kV, 245kV and 275kV.

Alroc CAMF4/40-90 BBCF Multifunction Cable Jointers Tool For Bonded Semiconductor & Insulation
Alroc CAMF cable preparation tools can be split for removal by the Jointer – this is a particular benefit for the cable jointer where they solder the cable connector allowing the tool to be easily removed from the HV cable when being used to strip and prepare offshore, IAC (Inter Array Cables) and submarine cables prior to installing HV joints, terminations or connectors.
The Alroc CAMF4/40-90-BBCF tool features a push/button locking system and also facilitates the Jointer to create a groove in the XLPE insulation (with their blade option) and shave bonded semi-con screens – the tool has 16 wheels rolling against the cable with 4 (or 8) contact points. The unique design of the Alroc tool prevents the cutting blade digging into the XLPE insulation when preparing high voltage power cables with XLPE insulation.
These cable jointing tools are used typically on 66-132kV high voltage transmission cable circuits, in accordance with EC 60840, to prepare XLPE single core power cables for jointing and termination applications into GIS Switchgear and installation of AIS Cable Sealing Ends.
The CAMF4/40-90-BBCF Preparation Tool enables the Jointer:
– To remove the bonded semiconductor
– To remove the insulation
Cable Diameter Range ø 40 – 90 mm

The tool includes a function for the jointer to simply adjust the outer cable diameter for removal of cable sheath – once the cutting blade is correctly set and positioned the cable jointer rotates the tool around the MV-HV cable in a circular motion. Adjustment of the Alroc tool is simple using the back-iron for clean and consistent cutting of the power cables.
Fine adjustment of the semiconductor shaving depth is possible for precision cable engineering of the semicon cut. Similarly, adjustment of the cable cutting depth using the Alroc CAMF4/40-90-BBCF is possible – the ball bearings can be switched to rotate statically to enable the cable jointer to create a chamfer and groove in the medium/high voltage cable insulation.
The Alroc CAMF4/40-90-BBCF jointing tool performs an excellent semicon cut to ensure the safety and reliability of the cable joint, termination or connectors.
