Copper Wire Stripping Machine, Copper Recovery

Product Information

The first thing you will observe about BWS-38-MF-DA is the weight. It’s not some 5lb cheap unit. The weight of the BWS-38-MF-DA is 50 lbs which are amazing and will give you the support and durability required to strip 1000’s of 0lbs of scrap copper wire. After using it for a few hours your hands will soon get tired of having to pull the wire through the tiny feed wheels. Especially if your wire is larger than a 1/2″ in diameter. Insulated strippers – these have VDE handles, industry-standard certification that indicates they are insulated from electrostatic discharge The most basic of these tools is a lot like a standard pair of scissors, except instead of a pair of blades, it's covered in holes of various sizes that correspond to particular gauges. These convenient handheld tools are ready at a moment's notice, and can often crimp and cut wire, too. A step above those are spring-loaded automatic options, which physically secure the wire and then remove the insulation, without any pulling or twisting from the handyman — a simple squeeze of the handles is all they require.

Likely Results: Pure Copper and you can process wire which won’t fit into a mechanical stripping machine Wire size refers to a wire’s diameter, which is often measured according to the American Wire Gauge (AWG) measurement system. AWG sizes range from 0000 to 40. It can be confusing, because the thinner the wire, the larger the AWG number. Wire can be solid or stranded; the stranded wires have a larger diameter. The most common gauges of wire in residential settings are between 6 and 14 AWG, but you might be working with gauges outside of that range, depending on the jobs and setting involved. Make sure to select a wire stripper that can accommodate the wire sizes you’ll need, and keep in mind that wire strippers can have different gauge ranges for stripping, cutting, and crimping. Safety Criteria A wire cutter, pair of pliers, or even a simple knife can do the job in a pinch, given the right touch and special attention to safety. There are different configurations of modern Romex wire, which, like Kleenex and Xerox, saw its most popular brand become a colloquial term for the entire field. Many large projects beginning around the turn of the 20th century employed wire surrounded by a layer of lead, and later aluminum. This provided increased safety and long-term reliability, though installation was pain-staking and the material itself rather expensive. Inside any sub-type, however, you'll find traditional insulated wire hard at work Multi Feed wire stripping machines are the easiest way to strip scrap copper wire. Trusted by 1000’s of folks stripping scrap copper wire across the planet!Thin wires are highly vulnerable to damage during the stripping process so proceed with caution and use a suitable adjustable stripping tool. This includes TV and broadband cables Electrical cables are potentially dangerous so ensure that they are not live before undertaking any work on them. Follow standard electrical safety procedures. Choose strippers with insulated handles for additional safety and pay close attention during the procedure to ensure that nothing is damaged as this could cause hazardous electrical faults

Scrap copper value: Not good. Scrapyards commonly penalize burnt copper and give you a lower rate for its blemishes. Stripping Experience: Plenty of manual adjustment. Works great for the same wire size. Not recommended for 1/4″ scrap wire and below. Steel armoured cable stripper - Ideal for slitting the corrugated copper, steel or aluminium armour layer on fibre feeder, central tube, stranded loose tube fibre optic cables and other armoured cables. Pistol wire stripper - Wire stripper with a self-adjusting blade, compound stripping action plus it grips and strips in on the motion.

Adjustable stripper - self-adjusting stripper with the ability to crimp, strip and snip wires. Designed with precision and made to last. Getting a motorized cable stripping machine can pay for itself in no time and you won’t have to worry about slicing up your hands! 3. Stripping Wire using a Low tech manual Wire Stripper

A wire stripping machine is a machine made for a single purpose: to remove the insulation from old wires. The inside of any wire is made of metal, and as most people know, metal can be both useful and valuable. Those piles of old wires can easily be turned into scrap metal that can be reused, recycled, or even sold, letting you not only save space, but save money as well. Anyone that has a huge pile of old wiring is certain to see the value in using a wire stripping machine, which in many cases can easily pay for itself after a very short time.PM: Electrical projects pose a particular safety hazard. What are the best safety practices to follow? A popular choice for its ergonomic, comfortable design and the value it delivers for the price, this tool strips and crimps wire of a range of sizes spanning the most common gauge numbers. The stripper also comes with an adjustable stopper to control the length of the core strip directly. Likely Results: Very good for stripping of insulation on wire diameters of 1/4″ up to 2000 MCM. Not so easy for wire thinner than 1/4″ in diameter.
