The invention relates to a machine for recycling sharp, pointed objects comprising a casing (2) with an upper front metal surface (2a) with at least one spout (3) associated with a needle extraction system, at least one H-shaped opening (4) with a metal tongue (4b) for disassembling scalpel blades and optionally at least one additional freely accessible opening (5) and, below said surface, a box (2b) with a surface in the form of a ramp that allows access to a lower reservoir (11). The extraction system consists of gear wheels (6) held by a support (7) and moved by an electric motor (8), additionally provided with a push-button (2c), a three-position switch (9) and a 12V DC rechargeable battery (13) or a connection to the 220V AC grid. The reservoir (11) has a sliding lid (12).
