1. A mechanical decladder for a nuclear fuel rod-cut, comprising:an opening and closing unit configured to open and close an outlet of a basket into which the nuclear fuel rod-cut is loaded;a supporter on which the nuclear fuel rod-cut discharged from the outlet of the basket is seated;a hydraulic cylinder module configured to move the nuclear fuel rod-cut seated on the supporter; anda cutting module for slitting the nuclear fuel rod-cut while the nuclear fuel rod-cut is being moved by the hydraulic cylinder module,wherein the opening and closing unit opens and closes the outlet of the basket in conjunction with a movement of the hydraulic cylinder module. 2. A mechanical decladder for a nuclear fuel rod-cut, comprising:an opening and closing unit configured to open and close an outlet of a basket into which the nuclear fuel rod-cut is loaded;a supporter on which the nuclear fuel rod-cut discharged from the outlet of the basket is seated;a hydraulic cylinder module configured to move the nuclear fuel rod-cut seated on the supporter;a plurality of cutting modules for slitting the nuclear fuel rod-cut while the nuclear fuel rod-cut is being moved by the hydraulic cylinder module; anda rotatable housing module to which the plurality of the cutting modules are mounted, the rotatable housing module being rotatable about a rotation axis thereof,wherein the opening and closing unit opens and closes the outlet of the basket in conjunction with a movement of the hydraulic cylinder module, andwherein a part of the plurality of the cutting modules is placed in an operating position corresponding to the supporter and the hydraulic cylinder module in a cutting direction of the nuclear fuel rod-cut by a rotation of the rotatable housing module. 3. A mechanical decladder for a nuclear fuel rod-cut, comprising:an opening and closing unit configured to open and close an outlet of a basket into which the nuclear fuel rod-cut is loaded;a supporter on which the nuclear fuel rod-cut discharged from the outlet of the basket is seated;a hydraulic cylinder module configured to move the nuclear fuel rod-cut seated on the supporter;a plurality of cutting modules for slitting the nuclear fuel rod-cut while the nuclear fuel rod-cut is being moved by the hydraulic cylinder module; anda rotatable housing module to which the plurality of the cutting modules are mounted, the rotatable housing module being rotatable about a rotation axis thereof,wherein the opening and closing unit opens and closes the outlet of the basket in conjunction with a movement of the hydraulic cylinder module,wherein a part of the plurality of the cutting modules is placed in an operating position corresponding to the supporter and the hydraulic cylinder module in a cutting direction of the nuclear fuel rod-cut by a rotation of the rotatable housing module,wherein a casing of at least one of the cutting modules has an opening therein, andwherein the opening in the casing is placed downward of blades when the at least one of the cutting modules is placed in the operating position. 4. The mechanical decladder of claim 3, wherein the opening and closing unit includes:a first gear unit driven in conjunction with the movement of the hydraulic cylinder module;a second gear unit driven in conjunction with driving of the first gear unit; anda third gear unit provided at a side of the basket and driven in conjunction with driving of the second gear unit. 5. The mechanical decladder of claim 4, wherein the first gear unit includes a first rack gear and a first pinion gear meshed with the first rack gear,the second gear unit includes a second rack gear and a second pinion gear meshed with the second rack gear,the first pinion gear and the second pinion gear are coupled by a belt, andthe third gear unit includes a third pinion gear meshed with the second rack gear. 6. The mechanical decladder of claim 5, further including:a support frame for supporting the opening and closing unit, the supporter, the hydraulic cylinder module, and the at least one of the cutting modules,wherein the first rack gear is coupled to the hydraulic cylinder module and moved together with the hydraulic cylinder module,the first pinion gear and the second pinion gear are mounted on the support frame and are configured to rotate about a first rotation axis orthogonal to a moving direction of the hydraulic cylinder module,the second rack gear is mounted on the support frame to be movable in a vertical direction, and is moved in the vertical direction in accordance with the rotation of the second pinion gear, andthe third pinion gear is mounted at a side surface of a lower end portion of the basket to rotate about a second rotation axis extending along a longitudinal direction of the nuclear fuel rod-cut loaded in the basket, wherein as the second rack gear moves in the vertical direction, the third pinion gear is rotated about the rotation axis extending along the moving direction of the hydraulic cylinder module so that an operating member is operated to open and close the outlet of the basket. 7. The mechanical decladder of claim 1, wherein the supporter includes:a fuel rod-cut seating unit in which one of spent nuclear fuel rod-cuts loaded in the basket is loaded;a support member provided at a lower side of the fuel rod-cut seating unit;a movable member provided at a lower side of the support member and coupled to the fuel rod-cut seating unit;a movable plate coupled to the movable member and having an inclined surface; andan elastic member provided between the fuel rod-cut seating unit and the support member,wherein the elastic member presses the fuel rod-cut seating unit upward, andwherein, during a forward movement of the hydraulic cylinder module, a roller of the hydraulic cylinder module presses the movable plate downward while moving in contact with the inclined surface of the movable plate. 8. The mechanical decladder of claim 2, wherein the supporter includes:a fuel rod-cut seating unit in which one of spent nuclear fuel rod-cuts loaded in the basket is loaded;a support member provided at a lower side of the fuel rod-cut seating unit;a movable member provided at a lower side of the support member and coupled to the fuel rod-cut seating unit;a movable plate coupled to the movable member and having an inclined surface; andan elastic member provided between the fuel rod-cut seating unit and the support member,wherein the elastic member presses the fuel rod-cut seating unit upward, andwherein, during a forward movement of the hydraulic cylinder module, a roller of the hydraulic cylinder module presses the movable plate downward while moving in contact with the inclined surface of the movable plate. 9. The mechanical decladder of claim 3, wherein the supporter includes:a fuel rod-cut seating unit in which one of spent nuclear fuel rod-cuts loaded in the basket is loaded;a support member provided at a lower side of the fuel rod-cut seating unit;a movable member provided at a lower side of the support member and coupled to the fuel rod-cut seating unit;a movable plate coupled to the movable member and having an inclined surface; andan elastic member provided between the fuel rod-cut seating unit and the support member,wherein the elastic member presses the fuel rod-cut seating unit upward, andwherein, during a forward movement of the hydraulic cylinder module, a roller of the hydraulic cylinder module presses the movable plate downward while moving in contact with the inclined surface of the movable plate.
