A cable tie tool has a first operating unit, a second operating unit, a pivoting shaft, a torsion spring, a cutting assembly, and an extension spring. The second operating unit has two guiding holes aligned to each other. The pivoting shaft is mounted in the guiding holes, is pivotally connected the first and the second operating units, and is movable along the guiding holes. The torsion spring abuts against and pushes the first and the second operating units. The cutting assembly has an activating element pivotally connected to the second operating unit and a cutting element movably mounted in the second operating unit and driven by the activating element. The extension spring is connected between the activating element and the second operating unit. When the extension spring is stretched, the activating element blocks the pivoting shaft from moving along the guiding holes.

Systems for providing efficient manufacturing of paper, sheet, and/or box products of varying size and structure, often with pre-applied print (“pre-print”), are provided herein. One or more controllers can be used to aggregate orders and information to prepare one or more control plans (e.g., reel maps, reel plans, etc.) for processing a roll of web product through the manufacturing process. The control plan may include a set of instructions for operating one or more systems within the manufacturing process to form the desired finished paper-based product. In such a regard, efficient manufacturing of various paper-based products, including corrugated boxes, folded carton, labels, flexible paper, industrial bags, plates, cups, décor, and many others, can be achieved. Further, efficient customer ordering/tracking, job aggregation, print imposition, corrugator planning, and tracking and adjustments throughout the manufacturing process are contemplated.

A cutting machine having a work surface, configured to accommodate at least one object to be cut, a working group, which is movable above the work surface including a receptacle device for accommodating a replaceable cutting tool, and a processing unit for controlling the cutting machine and storage capacity for providing a database, characterized by a first sensor unit, which is designed to detect individual items of identification information of the cutting tool and to provide detected items of identification information to the processing unit, wherein the processing unit is designed to recognize the cutting tool based on the items of identification information, to detect operating data of the cutting tool and store these data in the database, wherein the operating data comprise at least one operating time of the cutting tool, and to carry out operational monitoring of the cutting tool based on the operating data.

A cutting equipment for radio frequency identification (RFID) tire tags includes: a cling film peeling unit (1) for peeling off the cling film on a material strip; a transport unit (2) for transporting the material strip; a visual detection unit (3) for detecting the position of the material strip; and a cutting and grabbing unit (4) for cutting the material strip and conveying the cutting-formed radio frequency identification (RFID) tire tag to a placement position. The cutting equipment for radio frequency identification (RFID) tire tag can not only improve the processing efficiency and save costs, but also effectively improve the processing accuracy of the radio frequency identification (RFID) tire tags and avoid secondary pollution of the material strip.

Apparatus (1) for changing a blade of a rotary die cutter, particularly for flexographic printing machines: a magnetic cylinder (3) configured to receive and support a die-cutting blade (5, 5′); a station (7) for inserting the blade (5, 5′) has a retention device (70) configured to retain the blade (5) in the insertion station; a guiding device (71) guides the blade (5, 5′) toward the magnetic cylinder (3); a station (9) for extracting the blade (5, 5′), has an extraction device (90) configured to remove the blade (5, 5′) from the magnetic cylinder (3).

A two different process continued performance type product assembly device may include a punching jig having a punch and configured to ascend and descend, a punching tool located on a lower portion of the punching jig and having a punching die that is located below the punch during a punching work, a fusion tool located on the lower portion of the punching jig and having a fusion horn that is located below the punch during a fusion work, and a tool exchange cylinder configured to push the punching die so that the fusion horn secedes from a position below the punch during the punching work and to pull the punching die so that the fusion horn comes into the position below the punch during the fusion work.

A block of a solid lubricant material, such as PTFE, is biased continuously or intermittently against the cutting edge of a rotary slitting blade for corrugated paperboard. The solid lubricant block prevents the build up of starch adhesive and biasing movement compensates for wear of the block and wear of the cutting blade edge.

A combined food cutting and rounding machine comprises a supply opening through which edible material passes, a stator located adjacent the supply opening and a rotor configured to rotate relative to the stator. The stator includes a stator forming channel. The rotor includes a plurality of rotor forming channels and a plurality of blades, at least one of the plurality of blades being located adjacent to each of the plurality of rotor forming channels. The stator forming channel and each of the plurality of rotor forming channels are arcuate in length. The supply opening, stator and rotor are configured such that, during operation as the rotor rotates relative to the stator, edible material exiting the supply opening is cut by one of the plurality of blades and formed into a ball by simultaneous contact with the stator forming channel and one of the plurality of rotor forming channels.

The film sealing and wrapping machine with a rotary cut and seal jaw is provided. The rotary cut and seal jaw has an internal sliding mechanism which provides for smooth and quiet operation. The rotational speed of the jaw may be varied to increase through put and to provide for a title bag around products. The rotary cut and seal jaw may comprise a seal bar and pressure pad may both be spring loaded to self align the seal bar and pressure pad during the sealing and cutting process. Lastly, a gap defined by a belt disposed upstream and downstream of the seal bar and pressure pad may be mechanically linked to the pressure pad through a control carriage.
