Abstract: A cutting machine includes a table having a planar working surface lying in a working surface plane, a protective pane, a light curtain device configured to generate a light curtain, a crossbeam above the working surface and designed for linear positionability parallel to a first horizontal axis, and a module on the crossbeam and designed for linear positionability parallel to a second horizontal axis perpendicular to the first horizontal axis. The cutting machine further includes a control unit configured to control the cutting machine. The cutting machine has a first operating state and a second operating state. In the first operating state, the protective pane on a first side of the table is below the working surface plane. In the second operating state, both the protective pane and the light curtain on the first side of the table are at least partially above the working surface plane.

Abstract: A cutting machine having a table with a working surface is disclosed. The working surface including a crossbeam above the working surface configured to be linearly positioned parallel to a first horizontal axis, a module, mounted on the crossbeam configure to be positioned parallel to a second horizontal axis, which extends perpendicularly to the first horizontal axis, a tool holder mounted in the module configured to move in a vertical axis and rotate about the vertical axis, and to accept one of a plurality of different interchangeable tools, and a control unit, wherein the tool holder has a connection device designed to supply the tool with power and a fluid, wherein the supply with the fluid is provided via a rotary joint, and wherein the power is provide via a rotary transmitter.

Abstract: A cutting machine having a work surface, configured to accommodate at least one object to be cut, a working group, which is movable above the work surface including a receptacle device for accommodating a replaceable cutting tool, and a processing unit for controlling the cutting machine and storage capacity for providing a database, characterized by a first sensor unit, which is designed to detect individual items of identification information of the cutting tool and to provide detected items of identification information to the processing unit, wherein the processing unit is designed to recognize the cutting tool based on the items of identification information, to detect operating data of the cutting tool and store these data in the database, wherein the operating data comprise at least one operating time of the cutting tool, and to carry out operational monitoring of the cutting tool based on the operating data.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cutting machine, having a table with a working surface designed to receive an object to be cut, a light curtain device and a protective pane. A crossbeam is arranged above tho working surface, designed for linear positioning parallel to a first horizontal axis. A module is mounted on the crossbeam and provides for linear positioning, parallel to a second horizontal axis. The second horizontal axis extends at right angles to the first horizontal axis. In a first operating state, the protective pane on one side of the table is below the working surface plane. In a second operating state, both the protective patio and a light curtain generated by the light curtain device, on the side of the table are at least partially above the working surface. In the second operating state the light curtain is located at least partially above the protective pane.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cutting machine knife designed for kiss-cut cutting of a sticker. A sticker backing includes a backing layer and an adhesion-reducing layer. The sticker includes a cover layer and an adhesive layer releasably adhered to the adhesion-reducing layer. The cutting machine knife includes a holding section for inserting the cutting machine knife into a knife holder of the cutting tool, a longitudinal axis disposed at a right angle to a cutting direction, a blade having a cutting edge and a back. The cutting edge, when viewed in a plane defined by the cutting direction and the longitudinal axis, forms with the cutting direction a first angle which is less than 90° and an intermediate zone between the cutting edge and the back which, again when viewed in said plane, encloses with the cutting direction a second angle which is between 130° and 170°.
