Dehiders are very well known in the meat processing industry, and have been used in commercial use for years. The function of a dehider, also known as a flaying tool, is to aid an operator in removing the hide from the carcass of animals, e.g.,cattle. Such animal hides are valuable, and it is highly desirable to effect removal without injuring the hides so as not to reduce their value. Historically, hides were removed from animal carcasses with a manually operated straight knife. However,and more recently, the dehider or flaying tool was developed to improve the unit output or work efficiency of the operator as an aid in removing the animal hide from the animal carcass
