A cable foil layer processing equipment includes a rack, a knife holder installed on the rack, a plurality of cutters movably installed on the knife holder and arranged in a crisscross manner in a vertical plane, and a linear moving mechanism configured to move linearly in a horizontal direction parallel to an axial direction of a cable. The rack is installed on the linear moving mechanism so as to move linearly in the horizontal direction along with the linear moving mechanism. The cutters clamp a foil layer of the cable in a radial direction of the cable. The linear moving mechanism drives the knife holder to move in the horizontal direction so as to cut the foil layer of the cable into a plurality of equal parts.
