A machine forms a whip from a length of cable. The machine includes a clamping assembly, a notching assembly, and a cutting assembly. The clamping assembly includes a pad which can be move into and out of a cable travel space. The notching assembly includes a notching saw which cuts an outer jacket of the cable in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis. Movement of the pad also causes movement of the notching saw to move into the cable travel space or into a raised position. The cutting assembly includes a cutting tool which transversely cuts the conductors of the cable.

A tool for cutting a workpiece includes a first tool part, which has a first cutting edge formed by a plurality of first blade elements, and a second tool part, which is opposite the first tool part and has a second cutting edge. In order to cut the workpiece which can be arranged between the tool parts, the tool parts can be moved towards one another from an open position into a cutting position. A particular, separate receiving contour of the first tool part is associated with the relevant first blade element, which receiving contour corresponds to a particular external contour of the relevant first blade element, wherein the relevant first blade element is form-fittingly arranged at least predominantly in the associated receiving contour of the first tool part.

A cutting method using a stamping press according to the present disclosure is a method to cut a workpiece that is configured from a first metal sheet and a second metal sheet joined at a weld portion and that has a heat-affected zone around the weld portion, in which the workpiece is cut using a punch. The punch includes a flat portion and a projecting portion projected more toward the workpiece than a flat portion of the punch. The workpiece is positioned with respect to the punch at a position such that the projecting portion starts cutting at least at one out of the heat-affected zone or the weld portion before the flat portion cuts the workpiece. The workpiece is then cut by moving the punch and a die relative to each other in this state of positioning so as to shear across the weld portion on the workpiece.

The electromechanical vertical cutting shear (1) comprises an electric servomotor (4) combined with a gear reducer (5) at least one shaft (6) bearing one or more spools (7), at least one motion transmission means (8) which is connected to a guillotine (11), and a cutting system comprising at least a pair of knives (12). The electromechanical shear (1) comprises a pulley system (9) for every motion transmission means (8).

A coil slitting tool in the form of a rotary serrator knife for use on coil slitting machines includes a plurality of serration undulations disposed on one or more faces about the outer periphery. The rotary serrator knife tool may incorporate a concentrically located bore about an inner diameter for mounting on an arbor and may further incorporate a keyway. The rotary serrator knife may be formed from an assembly having, a central rotary disk about which mount one or more removable inserts including the serration undulation portion. The one or more removable inserts may include serration undulations on one side or two sides and mount substantially to the perimeter of a mounting disk by use of fasteners.

The application relates to a demolition device for demolishing a concrete structure according to one embodiment. The device has a crushing blade for crushing concrete, and a cutting blade for cutting metal or a pulverizing blade for grinding concrete, and a combination blade. The device can be attached to a utility machine in a detachable manner. The crushing and cutting/pulverizing blade are separate blades from each other. The combination blade is adapted to be used for crushing concrete with the crushing blade. The combination blade is adapted to be used for cutting metal with the cutting blade or for grinding concrete with the pulverizing blade. The combination blade has abutment surface parts for the crushing and cutting/pulverizing blade. The abutment surface part for the cutting/pulverizing blade makes possible a power transmission between the cutting/pulverizing and combination blade when using the combination blade for crushing concrete. The abutment surface part for the crushing blade makes possible a power transmission between the crushing and combination blade when using the combination blade for cutting metal or grinding concrete.

A shearing method of a plate-shaped workpiece for applying a shear force in a thickness direction of the plate-shaped workpiece includes: a step for starting applying the shear force on the workpiece with a clearance between action points in a surface direction orthogonal to the thickness direction of the workpiece; a step for applying the shear force after the start of applying the shear force until a fractured surface is created in the workpiece; and a step for increasing the clearance depending on a deformation of the workpiece in the thickness direction after starting applying the shear force until the fractured surface is created in the workpiece.

A cutting head for a hydraulic power tool includes a first jaw that includes a first ear configured with a slot for receiving a corresponding ear. The second jaw includes a second ear with a third ear bore that aligns in between a first ear bore and to a second ear bore of the first ear when the second ear is coupled in the slot of the first ear. The cutting head further includes a spring-biased flange coupled to a blade mounted to the first jaw and a retained coupled at a fixed position to a blade mounted to the second jaw. The retainer is configured to receive the flange during a cutting action such that the flange prevents the blades from shifting out of alignment during the cutting action.

There is provided a cutting method for cutting a workpiece using a cutting tool comprising a die and a punch, including: arranging the workpiece between the die and the punch, and in a state in which a wedge-shaped first cutting part of the die and a wedge-shaped second cutting part of the punch are opposed, pushing the punch relatively to the die side to cut the workpiece; wherein: a front end angle θ.sub.1 of the first cutting part and a front end angle θ.sub.2 of the second cutting part are each 100 or more and 1200 or less, and a front end radius R.sub.1 of the first cutting part and a front end radius R.sub.2 of the second cutting part are each 0.5% or more and 35.0% or less of a sheet thickness.
