Regarding a cardboard sheet-cutting device, a cardboard sheet-cutting control unit and a cardboard sheet-manufacturing apparatus, continuous cutting is made during job changes, in which the cardboard sheet cutting width changes, without stopping conveyance of the cardboard sheets, by a printing unit for printing cutting marks on a double-faced cardboard sheet; a slitter scorer for cutting the double-faced cardboard sheet to a specified width; a cutoff for cutting the double-faced cardboard sheet to a specified length; a mark detector for detecting cutting marks; a movement unit for moving the mark detector along the width direction of the double-faced cardboard sheet; and a cutting control unit for performing control to actuate the cutoff on the basis of the detection results of the mark detector and moving the mark detector using the movement unit on the basis of job-change timing data and post-job change mark position information.

A device for carrying out cutting operations on an open format edge of a printed product is operatively connected to a feed apparatus for the first cutting operation and to a removal apparatus which operates after the final cutting operation. The device comprises a cutting apparatus configured to carry out each edge-based cutting operation. The printed product is moveable from a first cutting location, at which the cutting operation for a first format edge takes place, to a second cutting location, at which the cutting operation for a second format edge takes place, after which, the printed product is transferable to a third cutting location, at which the cutting operation for a third format edge takes place. The printed product is transferable by a transport unit having a device by which the printed product is gripped by the spine and is conveyable in a suspended manner.

The present invention relates to a method for positioning a plurality of tool heads in a converting machine for converting sheet material into box templates, comprising: providing a plurality of tool heads located at a first set of individual positions within a converting area, moving the plurality of tool heads within the converting area in a first movement by means of a transport mechanism that is arranged to be coupled individually to each tool head, moving at least one of the plurality of tool heads in relation to the transport mechanism in a second movement, wherein the plurality of tool heads are moved to a second set of individual positions by the first and second movement, and wherein the second movement takes place during the first movement. The invention also relates to a tool heads positioning device.

A corrugated cardboard plant comprises a corrugated cardboard web production assembly for producing a corrugated cardboard web; a register mark cutting device, disposed downstream of the corrugated cardboard web production assembly, for cutting the corrugated cardboard web into corrugated cardboard sheets; a register mark detection device, disposed upstream of the register mark cutting device, for detecting at least one register mark on the corrugated cardboard web; and a control assembly which is in signal connection with the register mark cutting device and with the register mark detection device, and depending on the at least one detected register mark actuates the register mark cutting device, while generating at least one register mark cut. The corrugated cardboard plant furthermore has a register mark cut position correction installation for the automatic correction of the position of the at least one register mark cut in relation to the at least one register mark in the case of an undesirable deviation of the position of the at least one register mark cut.

A deagglomerator for use in resizing masses of cells is disclosed. The deagglomerator may include a plurality of apertures defined by a plurality of front and back edges. The masses of cells may be passed through the plurality of apertures from the front to the back, and from the back to the front, repeatedly. The deagglomerator may also include a plurality of blades that may aid in the deagglomeration of the cell masses. The deagglomerator may be configured between two syringes so that the tissue may be passed back and forth from the first syringe through the device to the second syringe, and then back again from the second syringe through the device and to the first syringe. In this way, the masses of cells may be properly deagglomerated.
