  • Publication number: 20190299479
    Abstract: The exemplary embodiments relate to a circular blade (1) having two end faces (2) and a peripheral cutting edge (3). The blade includes two axial sides (12, 14). In at least one axial side at least one material tapering (4) is formed running concentric to the cutting edge (3), so that a thickness of the circular blade (1) decreases radially outwardly towards a minimum tapering thickness (5) due to the geometric formation of the material tapering (4). The minimum tapering thickness (5) is dimensioned so that the circular blade (1) cannot be broken at the material tapering, so that a successor cutting edge can be produced by grinding only in the region of the material tapering.

  • Patent number: 8707838
    Abstract: A cutting arrangement for longitudinally cutting material includes two blades disposed across from one another and which cooperate during cutting. Each blade is embodied as a circular blade having a sharp cutting edge and supported by an adjusting or placement mechanism. During the cutting process, the circular blades are positioned by the adjusting or placement mechanisms so that the cutting edges overlap one another to form an overlap zone, the center of which coincides with the middle of the material that is to be cut. An adaptive control assembly includes individual drive motors for driving each blade and enables constant side load force control for each blade, such that side load pressures are adjustable in response to changes in web sped, web tension, and blade condition in real time. Automatic blade diameter sensors calculate the zero point of the cut, determine the appropriate blade speed and automatically set the overlap.

  • Publication number: 20110252937
    Abstract: A slitting machine for slitting or longitudinally cutting material, especially fibrous material, where the cut is critical. A cutting arrangement produces a slit or cut that divides a sheet of material, the cutting arrangement comprising an upper blade and a lower blade. A non-cutting tool for producing a cutting channel in a surface of the sheet of material is disposed upstream of the cutting arrangement as viewed in a direction of slitting. The cutting arrangement is adapted to enter the cutting channel and to execute a cut or slit along the cutting channel.

  • Patent number: 7757594
    Abstract: A longitudinal cutting machine having an upper blade held and displaceable on a first longitudinal guide, and a lower blade that is associated with the upper blade, the lower blade being held on and displaceable along a second longitudinal guide. A displacement device is associated with one of the lower blade or upper blade, and is provided with an extendable driving rod that bridges a gap to that longitudinal guide that holds the other of the upper blade and lower blade. The driving rod acts on the other blade such that the displacement device displaces the upper blade and lower blade together. A guide mechanism is disposed on the driving rod and acts on that longitudinal guide that holds the other of the upper blade and lower blade.

  • Publication number: 20100162871
    Abstract: A slitting machine with an upper blade arrangement having a plurality of blade holders supported on a cross beam via associated position-securing mechanisms. Each blade holder is provided with a lowering device and a cutter head for a circular blade supported thereon, each cutter head being carried by the lowering device. Each circular blade is adapted to overlap a blade edge of a lower blade to form a cutting point disposed on the entry side of the material that is to be cut. A device is provided for adjusting a horizontally measured distance of the cutting point of the circular blade from the cross beam.

  • Publication number: 20090288539
    Abstract: A longitudinal cutting or slitting machine having a knife carrier that supports a circular knife. A pre-tensioning element is disposed on the knife carrier for pre-tensioning the circular knife into a cutting position defined by abutment of the circular knife against a counterknife. A changeover mechanism is disposed on the knife carrier for placing the pre-tensioning element in an ineffective position that provides a firm connection between the knife carrier and the circular knife.

  • Publication number: 20090193955
    Abstract: A cutter arrangement including a crush cutter holder with a pneumatically actuatable piston and a fork-shaped blade holder supported thereby. A crush cutter is disposed in a positively engaging manner between the arms of the fork. For exchange purposes, the crush cutter can be displaced and moved out of the fork. A lower blade is associated with the crush cutter. A lever is disposed on the housing of the crush cutter holder so as to be pivotable about a bearing point. The lever is pivotable out of a release position for the crush cutter into a first contact position against the outer periphery of the crush cutter, and furthermore into a displacement position for the crush cutter leading to release of the crush cutter from the fork.

  • Patent number: 7472635
    Abstract: A blade holder for cutting machines includes a blade head held on a raising and lowering device and having an adjustment mechanism for a circular blade that is held on the blade head. The adjustment mechanism for the movement of the circular blade between a cutting position and a ready position, is provided with an adjustment piston rod having an adjustment piston that is guided in a chamber of the blade head housing and can is adapted to be moved by compressed air. The adjustment piston rod is biased by a compression spring into the ready position of the circular blade. The piston surface of the adjustment piston has a cross-sectional area that is configured such that as the path of the adjustment piston in the direction of adjustment increases, the piston surface that is acted upon by compressed air increases.

  • Publication number: 20080210075
    Abstract: Longitudinal slitting machine having associated upper and lower knives. Knife holders for the upper knives are supported on a crosspiece. A knife head is carried by a lowering mechanism and supports an upper knife in the form of a circular knife, the lowering mechanism including a piston having a piston rod for the knife head. A path of movement of the circular knife into a cutting position is delimited by an abutment, and a depth adjuster fixes the cutting position when the knife head is lowered. A setting instrument indicates the position of cutting edges of the upper knife relative to the lower knife with reference to the true diameter of a new circular knife. The depth adjuster is positioned in conformity with a position value determined by the setting instrument.
