Abstract:
A method and equipment for manufacturing floor underlayment is provided. The equipment is configured to produce floor underlayment having a consistent density and thickness. The equipment has a series of rollers configured to pull a formed batt into a moving transverse blade and to cut the underlayment into two portions having random fiber distribution and even thicknesses and densities.
Abstract:
Described is an apparatus (10) for cutting a material (11), especially in the form of fabric or the like, which is cut according to a respective cutting layout or configuration (11a), comprising means (12) for loading the material, means (14) for cutting the material at a respective cutting zone, defined in particular by a work top (14a) for supporting the material, and means (16) for expelling, or unloading, the material from the cutting zone (14a), and processing means (9) for controlling the apparatus. More specifically, the apparatus comprises a zone which is designed to allow inspecting the material, and which is defined by a corresponding work top (18a) for supporting the material, especially in the form of a belt for feeding the material, preferably located upstream of the cutting zone (14a).
Abstract:
A finisher for a receiver moving in a feed direction includes a cutting device having a cutting blade and a scoring blade on opposite sides of the receiver and oriented perpendicular to the feed direction, and a scoring notch on the opposite side of the receiver from, and parallel to, the scoring blade. An actuator selectively causes the scoring blade to engage the scoring notch as the receiver moves between the scoring blade and scoring notch, so that the receiver is scored, or causes the cutting blade to engage the scoring blade, so that the receiver is cut. A controller receives a job specification including one or more cut or score location(s) on the receiver and causes the receiver to be cut at the cut location(s) or scored at the score location(s).
Abstract:
A device for cutting paper and other graphic substrates (10) in roll on two perpendicular axes simultaneously with automatic errors correction, both in the feeding with respect to a direction (F) along the longitudinal axis (Y) of the substrate, and of the deviation of the image with respect to the edge of the substrate itself. For this purpose a motor (5) is provided at the horizontal cutting unit (4), in addition to a drive motor (6), suitable for shifting the cutting path in order to make it coincide with the correct cutting line (Tx). In the same way, for the longitudinal cutting assembly (14) along the (Y) axis, in addition to a motor (7) for performing the cut, a motor (8) is provided suitable for translating along the (X) axis the whole cutting assembly on the basis of lateral deviations detected by means of an optic cell (9), whose signals are processed by a microprocessor for the drive of said motor (8).
Abstract:
A germent portion processing assembly (10) receives material for processing this into a desired shape, such as a shirt collar, and then organizes this into stacks. The assembly includes a stack queuing assembly (12), a garment portion cutting apparatus (14), and a garment receiving assembly (16). In operation, the stack queuing assembly prepares the stacks of garment portions (18) for processing. The garment portion cutting apparatus includes a folding assembly (30) for precisely folding in an even manner, a shaping knife assembly (32) used to trim the garment portion according to the desired pattern and a width knife assembly (33) that makes sure the garment portion has the proper width. Lastly, after the garment portion is trimmed, it is delivered to the collar receiving assembly to be stacked with the other processed garment portions (18) for collection by the user.
Abstract:
A coiled double faced tape (10) can be mass-produced by unwinding and conveying a rolled base tape (5), which is formed by winding around a wide band-shaped separator a base tape body, composed of laminated adhesive backing (14), with the laminated adhesive backing (14) inside, cutting the conveyed base tape body (6) into a plurality of bands in a converging widthwise direction by means of a tape cutter (A), cutting the adhesive backing (14) of respective cut, band-shaped tape bodies (11) into three fine straps in a widthwise direction by an adhesive backing cutter (B), winding around an adhesive backing winding shaft (40) deckle edges (14a) of the cut adhesive backing to remove the same, and winding the tape bodies (11), with adhesive backings (14b) laminated only at central portions thereof in a widthwise direction, onto a tape winding shaft (50) to form the same in the form of a coil.
