Abstract

A wire and a stripping method thereof, and a light strip are provided. The stripping method includes the following steps: holding a wire by a holder, the wire including an insulation layer and a conductor covered by the insulation layer; mounting the holder on a worktable of a an optical device; and activating a light emitter of the optical device to emit a light beam irradiating onto the insulation layer to ablate a portion of the insulation layer to form at least one through hole that penetrates the insulation layer to expose a portion of the conductor.

Claims (18)

1. A stripping method, comprising:

holding a first wire and a second wire wherein a conductor of the first wire is covered by an insulating layer of the first wire, and a conductor of the second wire is covered by an insulating layer of the second wire;

detecting types of a positive pin and a negative pin of a light-emitting element;

determining a type of a through hole of the first wire, according to the type of the positive pin of the light-emitting element;

determining a type of a through hole of the second wire, according to the type of the negative pin of the light-emitting element;

emitting a light beam to illuminate the insulating layer of the first wire, so that a portion of the insulating layer of the first wire is ablated to form the through hole of the first wire that penetrates the insulating layer of the first wire to expose a portion of the conductor of the first wire;

emitting a light beam to illuminate the insulating layer of the second wire, so that a portion of the insulating layer of the second wire is ablated to form the through hole of the second wire that penetrates the insulating layer of the second wire to expose a portion of the conductor of the second wire;

connecting the conductor of the first wire to the positive pin of the light-emitting element through the through hole of the first wire; and

connecting the conductor of the second wire to the negative pin of the light-emitting element through the through hole of the second wire.

2. The stripping method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining a location, a time, a depth and an area that the insulating layer of each of the first wire and the second wire is ablated; and

adjusting a light intensity, an irradiation range, an irradiation angle and an irradiation time of the light beam, according to the location, the time, the depth and the area that each of the first wire and the second wire is ablated.

3. The stripping method of claim 1 , further comprising:

simultaneously or sequentially ablating parts of the insulating layer respectively at a plurality of segments of one of the first wire to form a plurality of through holes, and then simultaneously or sequentially ablating parts of the insulating layer at a plurality of segments of another of the first wire and the second wire to form a plurality of through holes respectively.

4. The stripping method of claim 1 , further comprising:

simultaneously ablating a first segment of each of the first wire and the second wire where the first segments are aligned with each other to form a first through hole at the first segment of each of the first wire and the second wire, and then simultaneously ablating a second segment of each of the first wire and the second wire where the second segments are aligned with each other to form a second through hole at the second segment of each of the first wire and the second wire.

5. The stripping method of claim 1 , further comprising:

detecting an ablation state of the insulating layer of each of the first wire and the second wire.
