Peeling device

A device for at least a partial removal of an outer circumferential surface of a cylindrical body, the device comprising:

• a cylindrical housing having a longitudinal axis, an outer peripheral wall, and an inner peripheral wall defining an interior space;
• wherein the interior space is configured to accommodate the cylindrical body in an axially movable manner;
• an opening extending from the outer peripheral wall to the inner peripheral wall;
• a cutting element arranged in the opening;
• wherein a cutting section of the cutting element projects into the interior space;
• wherein the cutting element is disc- or ring-shaped;
• a fastening element connecting the cutting element to the housing;
• wherein the fastening element extends along a direction of a longitudinal axis of the cutting element;
• wherein the cutting element is fastened to the housing by rotation of the cutting element about a longitudinal axis of the cutting element;
• wherein, extending in a direction of movement of the cylindrical body, upstream of the cutting element, a first section of the interior space has an inside diameter D2;
• wherein the first section merges into a second section of the interior space;
• wherein a boundary of the second section, towards the interior space, has a circular-segment cross section;
• and
• wherein the second section has a circumference extending equidistant to a circumference of the cutting element, at least in a region of the cutting section.
