Abstract: A method for processing a cable on a cable processing machine which includes a cable processing station with a cable processing tool. An interface receives at least one physical parameter value, from a sensor, indicating a capability of the cable processing machine for executing a processing step. A capability determination component determines, based on the physical parameter, that the capability is insufficient. A voice instruction generator component generates voice instructions for an operator, relating to an action to be performed for restoring the capability of the cable processing machine to enable execution of the processing step. Voice instructions are output generated and sent to wearable audio device associated with operator. A confirm component receives confirmation that action for restoring the capability of the cable processing machine is complete, and the capability determination component validates restoration of the capability.

Abstract: A method for fitting cables (13) with seals (1), in which the seals (1) are accommodated via a transfer unit and mounted on the mentioned cable (13). While the seal (1) is being accommodated via the transfer unit, its orientation on the holding arbor (2) is mechanically-electrically and fully automatically checked.

Also a transfer unit for seals (1) or comparable cable fitting components for a cable processing plant, the transfer unit encompassing a holding arbor (2) for accommodating seals (1), wherein at least one force and/or pressure transducer (3) is situated on or in the holding arbor (2).

Abstract: A cable processing machine includes a cable processing station with a cable processing tool (PT1, PT2) for processing a cable. An interface receives from a sensor (S1, S2, S3) at least one physical parameter value (P1, P2) indicating a capability of the cable processing machine for executing a processing step. A capability determination component (110) determines, based on the physical parameter (P1, P2), that the capability is insufficient. A voice instruction generator component (130) generates voice instructions (VI-1) for an operator (10), the voice instructions (VI-1) relate to an action to be performed by the operator (10) for restoring the capability of the cable processing machine (100) to enable the execution of the cable processing step. The voice instructions (VI-1) are audio output generated on wearable audio device (11) associated with operator (10), and sent to the audio output device (11).
