ABSTRACT:
Rubber bands are removed from a bundle of envelopes by clamping a portion of the bundle to hold the bundle in a fixed position, opening a gap between two envelopes of the bundle, and inserting a pendulum-like band engaging blade into the gap. By swinging and retracting the blade, longitudinal rubber bands are pulled off the bundle. And, by pulling the bundle from the reinserted blade, lateral rubber bands are stripped off the bundle.
