Patent number: 10088086Abstract: A system comprising a wrapping device that forms a ring of tensioned material by wrapping a material around an outer circumference of a tube encasement, and a cutting device that cuts through an entire cross-section of the ring of tensioned material, the tube encasement and a tube encased by the tube encasement, wherein the ring of tensioned material applies a first radial force onto the tube encasement and induces a second radial force from the tube encasement onto the tube.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2013Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: NEOPERL GmbHInventor: Roger Schlitter

Patent number: 9636899Abstract: A method for cutting to length a piece of tube having an inner tube and an outer tube sheathing, the piece of tube being detached with the aid of a cutting tool at a cutting site in a plane oriented transversely to the longitudinal extent of the tube. The tube sheathing is surrounded by a severable tube fixing element, which covers over the intended cutting site before the piece of tube is detached using the cutting tool at the cutting site, and the tube fixing element completely encloses the outer tube sheathing in the circumferential direction. The tube fixing element is fixed on the tube sheathing and/or the tube enclosed by the tube fixing element is severed with the cutting tool such that a relative displacement of the tube fixing element with respect to the tube sheathing or of the tube sheathing with respect to the inner tube is prevented.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2015Date of Patent: May 2, 2017Assignee: NEOPERL GMBHInventor: Roger Schlitter

Publication number: 20150211661Abstract: The invention relates to a method for cutting a tube segment (1) from a tube, said tube being provided with an inner tube (2) and an outer tube casing (3) surrounding the inner tube (2). Said the tube segment (1) is separated from the tube, by means of a cutting tool, at a cutting point in a cutting plane oriented transversely to the longitudinal extension of the tube. The tube casing (3) of the tube is surrounded by a separable tube retainer (4), which covers the provided cutting point before the tube segment (1) is separated from the tube, by means of the cutting tool, at the cutting point, wherein the tube retainer (4) completely surrounds the outer tube casing (3) in a peripheral direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2013Publication date: July 30, 2015Applicant: NEOPERL GMBHInventors: Roger Schlitter, Werner Kury

Publication number: 20080016936Abstract: The invention relates to a method for sizing a tube section (5) of a tube (1), with the tube (1) including an inner tube (2) and an outer tube (3) covering the inner tube (2). The tube section (5) is separated with the help of a cutting tool (6) at a cutting site (8) in a cutting plane aligned perpendicular to a longitudinal extension of the tube (1). For the method according to the invention, the tube cover (3) of the tube (1) is wrapped by a tube fixation (4), for example an adhesive tape, which covers the intended cutting site, before the tube section (5) is separated from the tube (1) at the cutting site (8) with the help of a cutting tool (6). The tube fixation (4) does not only mark the intended cutting site but also counteracts a fraying of the tube cover (3) at the cutting site (8), comprising a metal and/or plastic web.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2007Publication date: January 24, 2008Applicant: NEOPERL GMBHInventor: Roger Schlitter
