A cutting machine is employed to cut a window blind which includes a first support stem, a second support stem, and multiple slats. The cutting machine contains: a base, a cutting mount, a rotary cutting disc, a slidable cutter, a switch unit, and a positioning mechanism. The cutting mount includes a first through hole and a second through hole. The rotary cutting disc is configured to rotatably cut the window blind from the first through hole to the second through hole. The slidable cutter is configured to slidably cut the window blind from the second through hole to the first through hole. The switch unit includes a separation portion which moves upwardly and downwardly and has a cutting plate proximate to the slidable cutter. The positioning mechanism is configured to fix the window blind based on a desired cut length of the window blind.

A shearing apparatus in accordance with some example embodiments includes a housing forming a stationary die pocket and a movable die pocket into which dies can be positioned. A force transmitting apparatus moves the movable die relative to the stationary die to shear a workpiece. The dies can be removed from the housing by disengaging a die engaging mechanism and an end stop assembly.

A cutting device includes a mounting head, cutting tools and a bracing element. Each tool has a cutting edge having a recess with a substantially semi-circular contour for accommodating a portion of a workpiece. An engaging protrusion extends into each recess and has a foot circumferential angular range from 20 to 90 degrees. The engaging protrusions project into the recess by to 9/10 of its radius. The bracing element extends from one tool and has a surface for supporting the workpiece.

An apparatus for cutting a profile, including: a cutter configured to make cuts on the profile having a first surface and a second surface, and having at least one rib on the first surface, wherein the cuts are made on the first surface of the profile; a first drive unit to drive the cutter forward and backward to and from the first surface of the profile; and a second drive unit to drive the cutter up and down along the first surface of the profile.

A shearing apparatus includes a housing, dies within the housing, a force transmitting apparatus; and a die engaging mechanism between the force transmitting apparatus and the movable die. The dies are movable relative to each other and have cutouts which cut a workpiece. The die engaging mechanism is releasable to decouple the force transmitting apparatus from the movable die.
