A precision positioning device of a unit-type die cutting & hot stamping machine includes a positioning element on an input end of a first imprinting element and a positioning element on an output end of each imprinting element. Two neighboring positioning elements accomplish the positioning between the two positioning elements together. Each positioning element is constituted by a positioning assembly installed symmetrically on each end of the imprinting element. The positioning assembly includes a positioning rod which can rotate against an installation shaft. Each positioning rod includes a positioning block which is provided with a reference surface. A rear side of the gripper is provided with a reference matching surface. By the positioning elements, the accuracy in the art of die cutting & hot stamping can be assured when the machine is performing a multiple-working-position procedure.

This invention relates to a cutting apparatus for cutting food items conveyed on a conveyor including at least one conveyor belt. A cutter is arranged above a gap extending across the at least one conveyor belt. The cutter is positioned in relation to the gap such that the cutting path of the cutter extends through the food items and the gap and below the surface level of the at least one conveyor belt. The cutter is adapted to be connected to a control mechanism for operating crosswise movement of the cutter along the gap. The gap is formed between adjacent elongated supporting means such as rollers with a fixed internal arrangement, where the adjacent elongated supporting means and the cutter is adapted to be connected to a control mechanism for operating back and forth movement of the adjacent elongated supporting means and the cutter parallel to the conveying direction while maintaining the internal arrangement of the adjacent elongated supporting means and the cutter fixed.

An apparatus for separating components of a hard disk drive includes a separating blade mounted on a blade mount and a sensor to detect a gap or seam between a hard disk drive lid and housing. The separating blade defines a bevel edge that can be aligned with the gap or seam. The alignment of the separating blade to the gap is in response to a signal generated by the sensor. In certain instances, the sensor is a laser. Opposing drive rollers are configured to contact a hard disk drive for movement of the hard disk drive into the separating blade.

A cutting tool may comprise a blade portion forming a distal end of the cutting tool. The blade portion may comprise a knife edge, and this knife edge may be defined by a grind surface. The blade portion may further include a chamfer surface that intersects the grind surface. The grind surface may be planar and/or the chamfer surface may be planar. A first exterior surface angle, defined as an external angle between respective outwardly facing surfaces of the grind surface and the chamfer surface, may be between about 210 degrees and about 270 degrees.

The present invention relates to an automatic package device, which may include a rack and a power control box provided on the rack. The cutter blade transportation device is provided on the rack along the X axis direction. Below the cutter blade transportation device and inside the rack, lower film feeding device is provided. At the rear side of the rack, the upper film feeding device is provided. At the front end of the cutter blade transportation device and on the rack are provided a blade feeding rail and cutter blade carrying device cooperating with each other. At the rear end of the cutter blade transportation device is provided a film sealing device which cooperates with the upper film feeding device and lower film feeding device. At the rear end of the film sealing device and on the rack is provided a dragging device fitting the blade strip. At the back side of the dragging device is provided a transverse cutting device fitting the blade strip. The present invention may achieve automatic feeding by the cutter blade carrying device. The dragging device may extend the upper and lower film material back and forth repeatedly. And the hot-pressing process may be accomplished by the film sealing device. The present invention may automatically seal the blades and the cutting device may separate the product one by one. At last the packaging process may be accomplished with high degree of automation and greatly improve production efficiency.

A method of forming an opening in a nipple for a baby bottle, comprising: inserting the nipple in a holder having an opening formed therein, the nipple positioned within the opening so that an area of the nipple where the opening is to be formed is positioned in a bottom area of the opening, the holder preventing deformation of the nipple in the area where the opening if to be formed; inserting a cutting device in an interior section of the nipple; contacting and stretching an interior wall of the nipple where the opening is to be formed by the cutting device; and penetrating the interior wall of the nipple forming the opening.

Aspects herein are directed to an apparatus and method for creating pixelated artwork composed of coloring element pixels. In some embodiments, a system converts the millions of pixels and colors of a digital image to a simplified color template with numbers assigned to particular colors. In one embodiment, a plastic grid is configured to cover the color template and receives crayons whose arrangement is determined by the numbers/colors of the color template.
