Abstract:
The present invention provides an apparatus for cutting a material, comprising: a frame body installed on a conveying path of a material; a cutting means, mounted on the frame body, for cutting an end portion of the material being conveyed; a laser preheating means for preheating the material by irradiating a laser beam onto the material before being conveyed to the cutting means; and a blocking and reflection means for blocking the laser beams reflected to the cutting means and re-reflecting the laser beam to the material.
Abstract:
A block of a solid lubricant material, such as PTFE, is biased continuously or intermittently against the cutting edge of a rotary slitting blade for corrugated paperboard. The solid lubricant block prevents the build up of starch adhesive and biasing movement compensates for wear of the block and wear of the cutting blade edge.
Abstract:
There is provided a slitting-material slitting apparatus including: a rotatable male blade; a female blade that is provided below the male blade; and a wrap section that wraps a slitting-material around the female blade such that the slitting-material makes contact with the female blade on a coated layer side of the slitting-material configured by a support body with a coating layer on the support body harder than the support body; wherein the relative position of the male blade and the female blade are determined such that the male blade slits the slitting-material in a state in which the coating layer is wrapped against the female blade by the wrap section and in contact with the female blade.
Abstract:
A sheet cutting device includes a cutter including opposed blades to cut a sheet fed along a sheet feed path to the device, a cutter holder holding the cutter and reciprocally movable in a width direction of the sheet perpendicular to a sheet feed direction in which the sheet is fed, and a guide member including a first path to guide the holder in the width direction of the sheet to cut the sheet with the cutter and a second path to guide the holder in the width direction after the sheet is cut. The second path is disposed away from the first path in a thickness direction of the sheet perpendicular to both the sheet feed direction and the width direction of the sheet. When the holder moves along the second path, the holder is retracted away from the sheet feed path in the thickness direction of the sheet.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a cutting apparatus and a method having a shaft with a first end and a second end. Multiple blades are fitted onto the shaft. A first side support supports the shaft at the first end and is sufficiently strong to support the shaft and the multiple blades without there being support for the second end. The exposed second end facilitates removal of the blades from the shaft by sliding the blades along the shaft and off the second end. A holding shaft may be coupled to the second end of the shaft on the cutting apparatus, and the multiple blades can be slide off the shaft and onto the holding shaft.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a shearing machine for transversally dividing especially a heavy steel plate, said shearing machine comprising an upper blade (3) which carries out a rolling cutting movement by means of an eccentric drive (8) and is held in a blade carrier (1), and a lower blade (4) which is arranged in the frame of the shearing machine (2) in a fixed manner, the upper blade carrier (1) being displaceably connected to a stand (6) of the shearing machine frame (2) by means of an articulated guiding element (5). A device for the clocked advance of a pre-determinable length of the steel plate is associated with the shearing machine, especially in the form of at least one driving element. The aim of the invention is to improve the stability of the shearing machine and thus the quality of the cut. To this end, the shearing machine is arranged between lateral stands (6, 6′) of the shearing machine frame (2) which is closed by an upper traverse (7) and a lower traverse (7′). The eccentric drive (8, 8′) of the upper blade (3) is arranged in the upper region of said frame, and bearings (10, 10′) and driving bodies (11) of lower driving rolls (12, 12′) are arranged in the lower region of said frame, in addition to a lower blade table (9) which is anchored between the stands (6, 6′).
Abstract:
A method for controlling press working by means of working wheels is disclosed which is capable of solving problems in conventional punch press working by means of working wheels. The method comprises: in punch press working by means of working wheels, moving at least an upper working wheel relative to a work in Z axis direction in an arbitrarily set amount assigned to the movement at the beginning or end of the working along an intended working line.
Abstract:
A muntin strip miter cutting apparatus for cutting muntin strips into muntin sections and assembly of muntin sections into muntin lattices. The apparatus has at least one muntin cutting blade which cuts muntin strips to produce mitered muntin sections. A piercing system pierces the muntin sections to provide apertures to assist with final assembly. The muntin sections are assembled with keepers at an assembly station to produce muntin lattices which are inserted between two or more panes of glass.
Abstract:
A slitting machine includes a pair of parallel arbors structured to support a plurality of cutting knives. The arbors are mounted to a head stock and tail stock on the slitting machine. The head stock and tail stock each rotatably support eccentrics which support the end portions of the arbors. Angular contact bearings, such as tapered roller bearings or ball bearings with inclined races, are positioned between the head stock and tail stock and the respective eccentrics and also within the eccentrics between the arbors and the eccentrics. Mechanisms are provided for providing an axial load across all of these bearings to eliminate play and so to accurately position the arbors so that cutting accuracy can be maintained. One such mechanism is a collet/piston supporting the operator's end of the arbors. The collet piston is received in a cylinder to which hydraulic pressure can be applied through a rotary coupling. When pressurized, the collet piston is forced onto a tapered end of the arbor, accurately positioning the arbor. At the same time, because the cylinder is mounted to the inclined bearings within the eccentric, the reaction force is transmitted through the angular contact bearings to the machine frame, precisely locating the arbors centrally of the bearings in which they are mounted. The collet piston may be made double acting so that it can assist in removing the arbor from the collet/piston. This permits self locking tapers to be used.
Abstract:
A portable slitter for selectively roll slitting rib forming or perforating sheet metal workpieces and having a beam-type frame, a pair of spaced thin walled and light weight rotary torque tube roll shafts mounted in the frame and supporting the work rolls, and a plurality of pairs of opposed stabilizing support blocks disposed between the shafts and the associated frame beams and providing further strength to the shafts by functioning as intermediate span shaft journal supports carrying the roll work loads imposed on shafts directly into the frame beams. The bearing members can be readily removed and adjusted longitudinally of the shafts without taking the frame apart. The slitter can be readily manually transported to the work site because it has a high strength-to-weight ratio and is light in overall weight. The slitter has substantial operational strength and improved work roll registry and alignment under continuous and/or adverse on-site operating conditions.
