Abstract
A peeling machine through which a rod workpiece is moved along a workpiece axis has upstream and downstream guides centering the workpiece on the axis is and axially flanking a rotary scraper engaging the workpiece and carried on an upstream end of a scraper tube coaxially surrounding the downstream guide and rotatable about the workpiece axis. The downstream guide has a stationary tubular housing extending coaxially in the rotatable scraper tube, a plurality of shafts pivotal in the tubular housing about respective guide axes angularly spaced about the workpiece axis, and respective axially elongated guide bars fixed on the shafts, extending axially therealong generally a full length of the scraper tube, and projecting radially of the guide axes therefrom. Guide elements—rollers or blocks—carried on the bars are engageable radially of the workpiece axis with the workpiece.
