A method and apparatus for armature stripping of wire from an electric motor armature having a shaft, a core including slots for winding wire therein and a commutator to effectively, efficiently and inexpensively salvage and recycle the armature is disclosed. The method includes the step of rotating the armature on its shaft on a carrier while simultaneously cutting the wound wire between the commutator and core a given depth with a rotating circular saw so that the combined steps of rotating the armature and cutting with a circular saw cuts all wires of the armature so that the wire may be easily removed from one end of the armature. The apparatus features a frame, a rotating circular saw and a guided carrier for loading and unloading a plurality of armatures on the carrier in a side-by-side relationship and rotatable thereon. The carrier is manually guided across the rotating circular saw so that the circular saw cuts the wound wire between the core and commutator a given depth. The apparatus also features a drive wheel coacting with the armature for rotating the armature simultaneously with the cutting of the armature wire so that all the armature wires are cut by the simultaneous cutting action of the saw and the rotation of the armature.
