  • Patent number: 4644837
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the burr-free cutting of strip-shaped material, especially made of metal, which has, for each cut, two pairs of circular knives on axis-parallel knife shafts. The strip-shaped material is cut into by the first pair of circular knives in the first parting step and is severed in the opposite direction by the second pair of circular knives in the second parting step. The characteristic feature of the invention is that the counter-knives of the two pairs of circular knives are arranged on a common knife shaft so as to rest against one another, and that they consist of an outer rigid, especially metallic, cutting ring and of an inner annular elastomeric hub part.

  • Patent number: 4595619
    Abstract: To produce bundles from strip, the strip is withdrawn from an uncoiler or coil and slit into a number of narrow strips that are supplied parallel and separated by about 2 mm to a winding point. The strip is wound at the winding point into bundles with a sheet-like or film-like insert that extends over the total width of the strips being supplied adjacent to each other also being wound in between the individual layers of the bundles. When the resultingly wound strip are unwound, the insert between the bundle at one end of the composite coil and the rest of the composite coil is separated in such a way that a strip of insert is removed along with a strip of metal from the composite coil and wound or coiled separately from the metal strip. The composite coil made up of individual parallel metal strips with the insert wound between them can be conveniently handled for conveying and storage at both its surface and side edges.
