  • Patent number: 6439372
    Abstract: The invention relates to a conveyor device, including a conveyor belt for transporting workpieces out of a cutting or stamping device and a placement star wheel for putting upright the workpieces, which are delivered horizontally upright. The placement star wheel is mounted downstream of the conveyor strip. Conveyor bands which grip the workpieces on top and/or at the bottom are provided between the conveyor belt and the delivery star wheel. The conveyor bands move at essentially the same speed as the conveyer belt and the placement star wheel and are arranged in such a way to guide the workpieces into the receiving elements of the placement wheel.

  • Publication number: 20020031982
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for rotational cutting of band-shaped material, comprising a rotational cutting cylinder which is fitted with at least one cutting edge and a counter-tool, wherein the band-shaped material is passed between the counter-tool and the rotational cutting roller. The rotational cutting roller is fitted with at least one, and specially two thrust collars placed in the circumference of the counter-tool, which determine the feed motion of the cutting edge towards the counter-tool. According to the invention, at least one sharpening device having at least one sharpening element is provided, which can be placed on the thrust collar or collars or on the counter-tool, said sharpening element removing material from the thrust collars or the counter-tool.
