A waste stripping machine for automatically removing waste from previously die-cut blanks is disclosed. The machine incorporates a feed conveyor to deliver the blanks individually to a stripping section in planar alignment. The stripping section includes a pair of transversely spaced waste strippers which are spaced apart an adjustable distance that is equal to the width of the blank. A rack and pinion traversing mechanism is included to easily move one waste stripper relative to the other for blank size adjustment purposes. Each waste stripper is fabricated with a driving belt and two driven belts whereby one driven belt defines a planar waste engaging area with the driving belt and the other driven belt defines a circular waste engaging area with the driving belt. The machine is powered by a single motor which functions the feed conveyor and the waste strippers in synchronism to deliver the stripped blank to discharge rollers, which rollers are also rotated in synchronism. The lateral edges of the waste portions of the blanks are engaged in the planar waste engaging area and are driven into the circular waste engaging area wherein the waste is driven from the planar path of the blank travel to positively separate the waste from the usable portion of the blank.
