Abstract
First and second shaving dies are mounted one above the other and are respectively provided with continuous shaving edges disposed adjacent to contoured annular facial surfaces which draw the shaved material away from the work piece as the shavings are removed by the associated shaving edge. An air nozzle mounted in proximity to the first die directs a jet of air across the contoured facial surface of the first die to blow the removed material away from the first die to prevent its interfering with the operation of the second die. The second die is located directly below the first die and is provided with a plurality of angularly spaced troughs lying immediately adjacent to and below annular facial surfaces on the second die for carrying the shavings from the shaving edges of the second die to a sump located below the second die.

A multiple shaving die, comprising in combination
- first shaving die having first and second opposite sides and having a continuous first cutting edge in proximity to said first side for removing a ring of material from a workpiece as the workpiece is moved past said first cutting edge,
- second shaving die having a plurality of spaced apart second cutting edges for removing chips from said workpiece as the workpiece is moved past said spaced apart second cutting edges,
- said second shaving die having a plurality of first passageways respectively disposed in proximity to said spaced apart second cutting edges for transporting said chips away from said second cutting edges,
- sump means removably mounted to said second shaving die in communication with said first passageways for collecting said chips,
- said second shaving die being mounted to said first shaving die in a position to shave said chips from said workpiece after said ring of material has been shaved from said workpiece by said first shaving die,
- a plate mounted to said first side of said first shaving die, a second passageway between said plate and said first side of said first shaving die, and
