An example pipe cutting tool includes a plurality of actuators and a plurality of cutters. Each of the plurality of cutters is connected to at least one separate actuator of the plurality of actuators. The at least one separate actuator is configured to move the cutter between a pre-deployed and deployed position. The deployed position is beyond the pre-deployed position. The plurality of cutters may include a first and second cutter, with the at least one separate actuator connected to the second cutter moving based, at least in part, on one or more cutting conditions. An example method of cutting a pipe includes extending a first cutter to contact the pipe, cutting at least a portion of the pipe using the first cutter, detecting a cutting condition, extending a second cutter based, at least in part, on the cutting condition, and resuming the cutting using the second cutter.

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.

The present invention is a portable hand tool for cutting the metal cladding of an electrical cable. The basic structure of the tool is a spring-loaded clamp comprising two opposing jaws which are biased toward closure by a torsion spring-loaded hinge mechanism. The upper jaw contains a rotating circular saw blade driven by a battery-powered electric motor, while the lower jaw contains a channel into which the cable is inserted. Application of manual pressure to the handle extensions of the two jaws has the dual effect of separating the jaws, so that the blade is raised away from contact with the cable cladding, and cutting off power to the motor, thereby stopping the blade rotation. With the blade raised and motionless, the operator can safely replace or re-position the cable in the lower jaw.

A method and apparatus for cutting a window covering comprises saw for cutting the window blind. A clamp assembly moves the window covering relative to the saw. A controller moves the clamp assembly to automatically position the window covering relative to the saw. The saw is moved into engagement with the window covering to cut the window covering.

The present invention provides a cutting work method comprising a cutting work step of forming a through-groove passing through from a surface to a back face of a workpiece material by cutting the workpiece material with a cutting tool while bringing a lubricant material for assisting cutting process into contact with the cutting tool and/or the to-be-processed portion of the workpiece material, wherein the workpiece material comprises one or more materials selected from the group consisting of a metal, a fiber reinforced plastic, ceramic, and a composite material thereof.

A blade storage array is detachably mountable with a tissue log cutting saw. The saw has a cutting arm with a tool holder receptacle adapted and configured to hold a circular saw blade for the saw. The array has a plurality of storage units. Each storage unit is adapted and configured to store a circular saw blade for the saw. Each storage unit has a tool holder receptacle adapted and configured to hold a circular saw blade. Each storage unit is adapted and configured to move perpendicularly to the saw blade center axis.

A two-part rail saw assembly includes a clamp part and a saw part. The clamp part includes a clamp mechanism configured to clamp to a rail to be cut and a first connection interface coupled to the clamp mechanism. The saw part includes a second connection interface complemental to the first connection interface, the first and second connection interfaces configured to fixedly and positively interconnect, thereby to connect and fix the saw part relative to the clamp part. The saw part also includes a circular saw blade rotatably mounted to a saw hub, the saw hub being displaceably mounted relative to the second connection interface. The saw part further includes a feed mechanism configured to guide and displace the saw hub, and hence the saw blade, through a cutting path relative to the second connection interface, and thus relative to the clamp part when the parts are interconnected, and thus relative to the rail when the clamp mechanism is clamped thereto.
