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.
Key Advantages of the Industrial Cable Stripper
• 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.
Technical Specifications, 10 to 120 mm Cable Stripping Machine
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Machine type | Industrial mechanical stripper |
| Cable diameter | 10 to 120 mm |
| Principle | Mechanical scoring and stripping |
| Depth adjustment | Quick, without special tools |
| Accepted insulation | PVC, rubber, PE and mixed sheaths |
| Products | Intact conductor and separated insulation |

Applications and Industries
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.

Compatible Materials
| Accepted material | Notes |
|---|---|
| Power cables Ø 10 to 120 mm | Distribution and industrial cables |
| Thick telecommunications cables | Bundles with outer sheath |
| Standard installation cables | Construction and infrastructure |
| Cables with PVC, PE or rubber | Adjustment adapted to the sheath |
How It Works
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
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.
