Abstract: The invention proceeds from a converter cutting device for a converter which is provided for converting at least one endless fiber into cut fibers, having at least one cutting unit which can be driven rotationally about a rotational axis and comprises at least one cutting means with at least one blade. It is proposed that the cutting means encloses a cutting angle which does not equal 0 degrees with a plane which is oriented perpendicularly with respect to the rotational axis.

Abstract: A direct SMC production device includes an impregnation device for impregnating fibers of a material strand. The impregnation device includes at least one densification unit which is designed to densify the material strand after application of the strand to at least one substrate.

Abstract: A treatment device for material strands having a separating device for dividing a material strand and a transport system. The treatment device comprises at least one front and one rear transport unit. At least one drive unit is provided for moving at least one transport unit relative to the other transport unit.

Abstract: A cutting device, in particular a converter cutting device, comprising at least one cutting unit that is configured to rotate, and at least one counterweight unit that is provided, at least partially, to compensate a centrifugal force active on the cutting unit during the operation thereof.

Abstract: A lifting apparatus includes at least one carrying means that is mounted on a compensation bearing unit and that is for receiving and/or delivering a polymer melt, and in particular a tacky polymer melt.

Abstract: A device for transporting a material strand, in particular a sticky plastic material strand. The device includes a transport unit for transporting the material strand and a discharge unit for discharging a separating powder. The discharge unit is arranged to apply the separating powder directly onto an underside of the material strand.

Abstract: An apparatus for producing a component mixture from at least two components with at least one inlet duct to feed or apply at least one component, a conveying duct to conduct the component mixture and at least one outlet duct to collect the component mixture. With the aim of providing an apparatus and an associated process that permit not only easy cleaning of the apparatus but also extremely uniform metering and in particular a wide control range, as well as good mixing of the components, the conveying duct is configured as a circuit to enable the component mixture stream to circulate in the conveying duct circuit of the apparatus.
