Power cables and large-diameter industrial cables contain valuable copper, but manual stripping is slow and risky. A 10 to 120 mm cable stripping machine precisely scores the insulation and peels it off mechanically, leaving the conductor intact and ready for recovery.
The machine covers standard, power and industrial cables, and the cut depth adjusts quickly. See the full range of recycling equipment.
• Wide 10 to 120 mm range, processes standard, power and industrial cables.
• Intact conductor, the precise cut does not scratch the copper.
• Quick adjustment, depth is set without special tools.
• High productivity, processes meters of cable per minute.
• Maximum-value copper, clean conductor, no plastic contamination.
• Recoverable insulation, the separated sheath can be recovered.
• Robust structure, designed for continuous operation.
• Simple operation, manageable by a single operator.

The machine is used by non-ferrous metal recyclers and operators handling cables removed from electrical networks, telecommunications and industrial demolitions. At large diameters, stripping the conductor significantly increases the value of the material.
Mechanical stripping eliminates the risks and low productivity of the manual knife method. The separated sheath can be recovered separately.

1. The cable is introduced into the feed guide.
2. The cut depth is set according to the insulation.
3. The blade cuts the insulation without touching the conductor.
4. The mechanism peels the sheath off the conductor.
5. The intact copper and the insulation are collected separately.
What diameters does it process?
It processes cables with an outer diameter between 10 and 120 mm.
Does the conductor stay intact?
Yes. Correctly set depth cuts only the sheath, without scratching the copper.
How fast is it compared to the manual method?
It processes meters of cable per minute, versus minutes per meter by hand.
Can it be combined with a granulator?
Yes. Large cables are stripped, while small cables and offcuts can go into the granulator.

„We do stainless-steel metal fabrication dedicated to restaurant kitchens. The UZINEX equipment was a radical change: modernization, an increase in production and quality.”
„I had no idea, I was completely clueless. And you started to explain to me. You told me what technologies to choose, what packaging to produce, what would work better on the market.”
„We use a single person who can operate 3-4 machines. Before, we needed 3-4 people to do the same thing.”
„We have multiple challenges in making special structures that serve our systems, and the laser welding machine solution helped us enormously.”
„Laser welding on stainless is something else, it's a completely different thing. The quality of the machines is undeniable: the samples say it all.”
„With Uzinex, I felt very well protected by the assistance they provided. When you have a whole shift stalled and you need someone to answer quickly, it matters enormously.”
„The proof that everything went well is that the equipment now works. We have over three years of experience with no problems. Or when there were issues, there was support. We're satisfied with the collaboration.”
„I can do even 5 boxes for one person, I can also do 10 boxes. Which other firms can't do. That is, they'd have to change dies, set up a whole 12-hour affair.”
„Whether I called at 2 in the morning or at 9 in the morning, the problems got solved. We're satisfied and we'll work together again.”
„A good, smooth collaboration. We always had support and help.”
„We're among the top producers in Romania for this product. I wouldn't have imagined that when I started, but things fell into place.”
„On price and quality ratio, they were the best price and the best quality on the market. We got along well and we're satisfied.”
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.
