A line for the semiautomatic feeding of industrial hides, particularly for setting-out/drying machines and vacuum driers, includes a loading/unloading device (5, 5') that lies between the unloading section of the setting-out/drying machine (2) and the drying tables (3') of the vacuum drier (3); the device (5, 5') can be actuated on command after spreading the hides (P, P') on each table of the vacuum drier. The loading/unloading device (5, 5') has at least one movable surface (8, 8') and has a translatory direction (V) that lies substantially at right angles to the main dimension of the tables (8) of the vacuum drier (3). The loading/unloading device (5, 5') is of the type with a movable conveyor belt (6) with an unloading end (7) that can be superimposed on the tables of the vacuum drier (3). It is possible to provide a conveyor belt (12) that is interposed between the vacuum drier (3) and an optional percher (4) that is aligned with it.
