Le rabot est une lourde pièce d'acier symétrique garnie de pics, qui peut travailler dans les deux sens le long du front de taille. Il est tiré en va-et-vient lent par une chaîne sans fin actionnée par un ou deux puissants moteurs. Il est pressé contre le massif rocheux par des pousseurs pneumatiques, répartis le long du front, qui agissent sur le convoyeur blindé de l'autre côté duquel se trouve le rabot. Les pics du rabot mordent dans la roche qu'ils abattent et le socle déverse sur le convoyeur blindé. L'usage du rabot est limité aux roches tendres et fissurées, sur une hauteur maximale de 1 m environ. 2, record 4, French, - rabot
