The waste stripping machine is configured at quotation stage according to the types of cable processed. Free technical consultancy available. Advantages of the waste stripping machine
• Maximum portability at 3,5kg and 450×150×180mm: use directly at the cable collection site. The waste stripping machine weighs 3,5kg and has the dimensions of an industrial hand tool, which allows it to be transported and used directly at cable storage yards, electrical demolition sites, WEEE collection points and temporary waste storage containers. This portability of the waste stripping machine eliminates the need to transport large volumes of cable to a fixed processing plant, reducing logistics costs and increasing the efficiency of the copper recovery operation.
“Changing the cutting chain of the waste stripping machine is done quickly, adapting the equipment to the diameter and structure of the cable to be processed.”
• 3 interchangeable chain types: quick adaptation to any cable diameter and type. The waste stripping machine is supplied with three types of cutting chain: Large Tooth for thick cables with tough insulation, Medium Tooth for standard cables of 10–50mm diameter used in industrial and residential electrical installations, and Single Tip for thin cables with special structure. Changing the chain of the waste stripping machine takes a few minutes and requires no specialised tools, allowing quick adaptation to the available cable batch without replacing the equipment.
• 4500rpm speed with pneumatic drive: fast and consistent cutting along the entire cable length. The waste stripping machine has a pneumatic mechanism running at 4500rpm that ensures a constant feed speed of the cutting chain along the entire length of the insulation, regardless of the material's resistance. The high speed of the waste stripping machine allows a significant volume of cable to be processed per unit of time, increasing the productivity of copper or aluminium recovery compared with manual stripping with a knife or with lower-speed equipment.
• 3kW air pump: sufficient power for PVC, rubber and PE insulation on industrial cables. The waste stripping machine has a 3kW air pump with an inlet pressure of 0,8kPa that generates the cutting force required to remove insulation made of rigid PVC, vulcanised rubber and polyethylene from medium- and low-voltage industrial cables. The available power of the waste stripping machine ensures operation without jams or interruptions even on cables with thicker or denser insulation, typical of waste from industrial installations and electrical panels.
• Recovery of valuable material: copper and aluminium from cable waste. Direct profitability from the recycling operation. The waste stripping machine efficiently separates the insulation from the metal conductor, producing clean copper or aluminium that can be sold directly to ferrous and non-ferrous metal collection centres. The quality of the separation achieved by the waste stripping machine directly determines the price obtained for the metal (clean stripped conductor is rated higher than that sold together with its insulation) and the return on investment in the equipment is calculated directly from the price difference per kilogram of metal recovered. 60-month UZINEX warranty, national technical support within 24–48 hours.
Applications: waste stripping machine
Collection and recycling centres for waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) use the machine.
Demolition and rehabilitation crews for industrial electrical installations use the waste stripping machine.
Speed 4,500 rpm
Collection and recycling centres for waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) use the waste stripping machine to process batches of used electrical cables received from the public and from economic operators. The processing speed and portability of the waste stripping machine allow the workflow to be adapted to the volume and type of cable available in each batch, without investment in fixed processing infrastructure.
Teams demolishing and refurbishing industrial electrical installations use the waste stripping machine directly on site to process the cables removed, recovering the metal value before transport to the collection points. The portability of the waste stripping machine and its pneumatic power supply make it compatible with the standard mobile compressors present on any industrial site. Frequently asked questions about the waste stripping machine
What is the maximum cable diameter the waste stripping machine can process?
The maximum cable diameter processed by the KPW-2836 waste stripping machine depends on the chain type selected and the cable structure. At quotation stage, UZINEX confirms compatibility with the specific cable diameters in the customer's processing stock and recommends the optimal chain type for each category. Is the waste stripping machine eligible for European funding?
Yes. UZINEX is a member of the Enterprise Europe Network and supplies equipment for projects with European funds. The waste stripping machine can be listed on SEAP/SICAP in recycling and waste-recovery projects. Leasing and credit options on the UZINEX credit and leasing page .

Six technology directions we integrate turnkey: from plug & play IIoT sensors, to cobots, predictive maintenance, optical inspection, MES connectivity and custom industrial software.
See in real time how much each machine produces and how long it sits idle. We fit sensors on any equipment, new or old, and within a few hours you have the OEE dashboard on your phone. No complex wiring, no production downtime. The first concrete step toward digitalization, with ROI visible from the very first month.
Solve your labor shortage without tripling your costs. The cobot works safely alongside your people (palletizing, feeding the CNC, welding) while you recover the investment in 12-18 months. Prices 30-40% below European distributors, with installation and programming included from us.
Stop waiting for things to break. Our algorithms analyze sensor data and tell you exactly which part will fail and when, and we bring it to your production line before the breakdown. Zero unplanned downtime, zero contractual penalties, complete operational peace of mind.
Eliminate defects before they reach the customer. Our cameras inspect every part at speeds no operator can match, detecting sub-millimeter defects. They mount onto your existing line, with no modifications. Ideal if you produce for export and have strict quality clauses.
Connect your machines to your office, regardless of brand or age. Our gateway automatically translates the data from any machine into your ERP's format: no manual entry, no paper forms, no human error. The manager sees production live, the operator receives digital instructions.
Have a process that no off-the-shelf software can solve? We build custom industrial applications: from tailored SCADA panels and HMI interfaces, to production planning systems, lot traceability and automated reporting. The code is yours, it runs on your servers, with no monthly subscriptions or vendor lock-in.
