Abstract
A hide skiving machine adapted to skive a hide in one pass constituted by a frame which supports, at its sides, a rotatable support cylinder upon which the hide is fed and is held in place by a slidable presser roller. A lower oscillating frame having a rotating lower blade cylinder and an upper oscillating frame having a rotating upper blade cylinder are furthermore provided which skive the hide. The oscillating frames are independently movable between a raised non-working position and a lowered working position by respective actuators. Each blade cylinder is provided with a sharpening assembly which maintains the blade sharpness for more effective skiving. An adjustable, flexible front shield and a feed table are furthermore provided. The oscillating frames which support the blade cylinders are also provided with play recovery elements which help maintain the position of the blade cylinders with respect to the hide. The support cylinder can also be provided with supporting elements which allow for the inclination of the axis of the support cylinder relative to the axes of the blade cylinders, thereby providing more effective sharing of hides with variable thicknesses.
