Auxiliary columns 4 are provided on both sides of the top of the support frame 2 to assist the up and down movement of the cutter 5. A cutter holder 9 is mounted at the lower output end of the cylinder 3, and the cutter 5 is bolted to the lower part of the cutter holder 9. The cutter holder 9 and the cutter 5 are used for cutting the wire harness. A base 6 is mounted at the bottom of the support frame 2, and an auxiliary seat 7 is mounted on the inner side of the base 6. The base 6 and the auxiliary seat 7 are used to assist in the cutting of the wire harness. A T-shaped seat 8 is bolted to the upper part of the workbench 1, and the T-shaped seat 8 is used to mount a second cylinder 11 and a third cylinder 12, respectively. Above the T-shaped base 8, from right to left, are mounted cylinders 11 (second cylinder) and 12 (third cylinder). Cylinders 11 and 12 respectively drive limit sleeves 13 and 14 to be installed at their output ends. Limit sleeves 13 and 14 are used to clamp the wire harness. A support leg 10 is mounted below the worktable 1 to support it.

[0028] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 Two sets of auxiliary columns 4 are provided, symmetrically arranged on both sides of cylinder 3, and the bottom of the auxiliary column 4 is connected to the top of the cutter seat 9. The auxiliary column 4 is used to assist the cutter seat 9 in moving up and down, and to increase the stability of the cutter seat 9 when moving up and down.
