Abstract
Skiving apparatus for use in electrographic copiers for stripping magnetically attractive developer from the outer sleeve of a magnetic brush applicator. Such apparatus comprises an elongated and flexible skive blade and means for applying equal and opposite axial forces at spaced locations along the blade to produce tension in the skive blade and thereby provide a straight skiving edge. Preferably, the skive blade is made of a magnetically attractive material so that it is attracted toward the magnetic core piece of the brush applicator.
