Abstract: A stitching device for producing stitching wire staples for stitching stacked sheet materials, includes a stitching head base body and a cutting box fixed to the stitching head base body. The cutting box includes a movable knife slide. A control device controls the movement sequences of the stitching head, in particular of the knife slide, for cutting off the stitching wire automatically. The stitching head base body, the cutting box and the knife slide are configured in such a way that, during interaction, the movable knife slide can be displaced relative to the stitching base body in order to cut off the stitching wire. The cutting box and the knife slide are provided with at least partly aligned openings in such a way that, during interaction between these openings and an operating device, it is possible to cut the wire off manually.

Abstract: A stitching method and a wire stitcher having a stitching head for stitching sheet-like materials using annular-eyelet staples, includes a staple support with a supporting body in the stitching head. The staple support supports a region of the annular eyelet during a driving-in operation and is moved out of the annular eyelet only when legs of the staple passing through the sheet-like material, have been largely bent over.

Abstract: A device for stitching collated printed products, in particular signatures, with staples, includes a stitching head base body, a former, a clincher, a staple support and a driver. The former has a supporting projection and a control projection. The supporting projection extends beyond a contour of the control projection. A saddle stitcher having a stitching device is also provided.

Abstract: A stitching apparatus for manufacturing stitching wire staples, in particular annular eyelet staples, for stitching stacked sheet materials, includes a stitching head basic body having a driver for driving the stitching wire staples into the stacked sheet materials in a downward movement of the driver. A former shapes the stitching wire staples, in particular annular eyelet staples. The former is pivoted away during the downward movement of the driver. A wire clamping lever is mounted pivotably in the former. The wire clamping lever has a control element which runs on a control cam in such a way that the former is supported as a result in the upward movement of the driver, with the result that the former is pivoted-in in the upward movement to a different point than the pivoting-out of the former in the downward movement.
