ABSTRACT:
A quick assembly/disassembly apparatus for splitting casing surfaces and peeling the cases from a string of sausages or the like which includes a trackway along which the sausage chain moves and driving discs that engage the casing covered chain of sausages and moves it along the trackway. A contour follower slitting blade is urged with a preselected amount of pressure against the skin casing of the moving chain of sausages and cuts the casing a precise amount to enable it to be thereafter loosened from the sausage by a stream of compressed air. A limiting pin prevents the slitting blade from displacement from the casing surface when the blade encounters a new casing to be split or other surface irregularities. Compressed air is directed against the split casings to urge the skin casings away from the sausages, and a vacuum assists an additional pair of driving discs to cooperatively engage the slit casings and move the casings to a remote location.
