An apparatus for processing the skin side of a tubular fur, which apparatus comprises:
- a mandrel on which the tubular fur can be drawn from a first part of the mandrel towards a second part of the mandrel so that the skin side of the fur faces outwards and the fur side of the fur faces inwards towards the mandrel,
- one or more scraper units, each scraping unit comprising at least one scraper roller configured for scraping said skin side when the fur is arranged on the mandrel, wherein the at least one scraper roller comprises a plurality of scraping edges for scraping the skin side of the fur during rotation and when in contact with the skin side, and
- a cover comprising a compartment and an outlet,
- wherein said cover is configured for enclosing at least a part of said mandrel and at least one of said at least one scraper roller in said compartment during operation,
- wherein said outlet is arranged in a bottom part of said cover, said bottom part being arranged below said at least one scraper roller, and
- wherein said cover comprises walls with inner surfaces configured for leading material removed from said skin side by means of one or more of said one or more scraper rollers towards said bottom part,
- wherein the at least one scraper roller is arranged to be moved towards and away from said mandrel during operation, and
- wherein said cover comprises at least one opening allowing the at least one scraper roller to be moved towards and away from said mandrel during operation of said apparatus.

- a mandrel on which the tubular fur can be drawn from a first part of the mandrel towards a second part of the mandrel so that the skin side of the fur faces outwards and the fur side of the fur faces inwards towards the mandrel,
- a first set of scraping units with scraper rollers arranged at opposite sides of the mandrel for scraping the skin side of the fur arranged on side surfaces of the mandrel when the mandrel is moved in its movement direction, and a second set of scraping units comprising scraper rollers for scraping the skin side of the fur arranged on top and bottom surfaces on the mandrel, wherein said scraper rollers comprises a plurality of scraping edges for scraping the skin side of the fur during rotation and when in contact with the skin side, and
- a cover comprising a compartment and an outlet,
- wherein said cover is configured for enclosing at least a part of said mandrel and said scraper rollers in said compartment during operation,
- wherein said outlet is arranged in a bottom part of said cover, said bottom part being arranged below said at least one scraper roller, and
- wherein said cover comprises walls with inner surfaces configured for leading material removed from said skin side by means of said scraper rollers towards said bottom part.
