Design of cable stripping machine and static analysis for process improvement

Palabras clave: mechanical design, static analysis, safety factor, copper recycling

Resumen

This article presents the design and static analysis of a copper cable stripping machine to improve recycling processes' efficiency. Currently, copper extraction from electrical cables represents a challenge due to the presence of insulating materials, which limits productivity and generates material losses. This project focuses on developing a mechanized system that replaces the manual process, optimizes time, reduces physical effort, and ensures precise cutting. To achieve this, SolidWorks was used to model and simulate the machine structure, ensuring its mechanical viability through static analysis. Factors such as stresses, displacements, and the safety factor in the blade supports were evaluated, determining that the design is structurally safe with a maximum stress of 29.8 MPa and a safety factor of 18. The results confirm the possibility of improving the design to reduce weight without compromising its integrity. This study represents a breakthrough in copper recycling methods, promoting efficient and sustainable solutions in the applied region.
