Abstract: An apparatus for removing the plastic mold around cured concrete in a plastic test specimen includes a baseplate with upstanding framework that supports two spaced vertical rods to which a cross-member is slidably mounted to move up and down the rods. At least one blade member is carried by the cross-member such that upon descent it may cut away the plastic of the mold so the cured concrete test cylinder may be removed. The cross-member is driven up and down by a lever arm pivotally mounted to the framework and includes a linkage between the lever arm and cross-member to transfer energy downward from the lever arm to cut and strip away the plastic mold from the concrete.

Abstract: A bimetal band saw blade has a cutting edge with a plurality of cutting teeth defining repeating, variable pitch patterns and variable set patterns within pitch patterns. Each relatively heavy set tooth defines a first primary clearance angle, and each unset and relatively light set tooth defines a second primary clearance angle. Each first primary clearance angle is less than or equal to about 20°, each second primary clearance angle is less than or equal to about 25°, and each first primary clearance angle is within the range of about 4° to about 6° less than each second primary clearance angle. Each unset or light set tooth defines a greater gullet area than a respective heavy set tooth and/or a finer pitch than the respective heavy set tooth. Each tooth defines a positive rake angle within the range of about 3° to about 10°.

Abstract: A device for cutting paper webs comprises a substantially continuously operated region of a papers supply, a discontinuously operated region of transverse severing of a separating the paper web, and a buffer region (15) for coupling the continuously and discontinuously operated regions. At least one receptacle (17) open at the top is provided in the buffer region, into which the paper web(s) (3, 3?) are guided so as to be looped in a freely suspended manner. The buffer region is arranged after a longitudinal cutting device (9) for producing at least two longitudinal webs (3, 3?), whereby at least two webs extending separately and adjacently to one another are guided in the receptacle or at least two receptacles are arranged adjacently to one another or adjacently to one another at an offset, wherein the paper webs are guided into the receptacles.

Abstract: A cutting insert for high-efficiency cutting is disclosed. The cutting insert includes an upper surface (110a), a lower surface (HOb), side surfaces (114) and corner side surfaces (116), which connect the side surfaces to each other.

Abstract: A dual angle guide (3) for ceramic cutting machines (1) includes a base (16); first and second positioning elements (4, 5) disposed on the base; a sector (9) calibrated with fixed angles for each positioning element; a first fixed stop (11) and a second fixed stop (12) for locating the positioning elements at a chosen angle on the respective calibrated sector (9); and rotation elements (13) for rotating the positioning elements in such a way that the positioning elements make it possible to make cuts in the ceramic piece (10) at different angles. The cuts are made by a cutting tool mounted to a sliding carriage (6). Each of the first and second positioning elements is rotatable in both a clockwise direction and an anti-clockwise direction in order to facilitate the scoring and cutting of the ceramic piece at various angles.

Abstract: A riving knife mounting assembly rigidly and accurately positions the riving knife relative to the cutting blade by way of a simple and intuitive mechanism. Interaction between a clamping plate and a locking plate engage opposite sides of the riving knife to hold the riving knife in place, and provides a sensible indication that the two components are properly mated. A cam lever assembly allows loosening or tightening the clamping plate and locking plate together about the riving knife by simply rotation of the lever. A spring assembly maintains pressure on the riving knife even in the loosened position to maintain proper positioning of the components. The clamping plate is part of a mounting bracket that is mounted to a motor arm movable with the drive assembly, and includes adjustment screws for adjusting the orientation of the riving knife relative to the cutting blade in multiple degrees of freedom.
