A cutting system and method for cutting food items includes an in-feed conveyor having an in-feed conveyor surface and an out-feed conveyor having an out-feed conveyor surface. The in-feed and the out-feed conveyors are arranged in an end-to-end arrangement. The system has a cutting knife defining a cutting plane within which it moves as it performs a cut. The cutting plane is defined between the ends of the in-feed and the out-feed conveyors. The cutting system has an out-feed hold down device with a surface facing the out-feed conveyor surface and being arranged in relation to the out-feed conveyor surface such that it is able to apply a pressure onto a portion of a food item resting on the out-feed conveyor surface while it is being cut by the cutting knife.

Provide a safer cutting machine. A front portion detection means that is spaced downward from the lower end of the clamp gauge by a first predetermined distance and is positioned near the front edge of the clamp gauge in die front-rear direction of the clamp gauge, and a first predetermined distance from the lower end of the clamp gauge. The rear portion detection means and the clamp gauge which arc spaced apart from each other by a second predetermined distance different from the above distance and which are arranged at the rear portion of the front portion detection means in the front-rear direction of the clamp gauge move in the vertical direction. The height of the clamp gauge when the detection state/non-detection state of the rear portion detection means is switched by the paper stack when it is moving or not moving, and the front portion by an unknown object when the clamp gauge is moving vertically The height of the clamp gauge when the detection state/non-detection state of Ok detection means is switched, the difference between the first predetermined distance and the second predetermined distance, and the class of the intruding object. Based on the estimated dimension in the vertical direction of Pugeji to detect an intrusion object.

A system for cutting medical tubing sourced from a spool of tubing uses two actuator groups that each reciprocate along a respective track, which are parallel to each other. Each actuator group has a clamp and a cutting tool which have an operative position along a common axis. The tubing is fed along the common axis to be operated on by the actuator groups. A forward actuator group clamps onto the tubing and is then moved along its track, pulling the tubing. A rearward actuator group then clamps onto the tubing and cuts the tubing. While still clamped onto the tubing, the rearward actuator group is moved forward, pulling more tubing, and the actuator group that was forward is moved to the rearward position and the process is repeated iteratively to produce tubing sections cut to the desired length. The tubing is pressurized and kept under pressure to straighten the tubing.

A cutting tool mechanism comprises a base, a fixing module disposed on the base for fixing a product to be disassembled, a first moving mechanism disposed on a side of the fixing module, and a three-dimensional cutter rotatably disposed on the first moving mechanism and matched with the fixing module. The first moving mechanism extends in a first direction and is configured to drive the three-dimensional cutter to move in the first direction, and the three-dimensional cutter is configured to be driven to move in a second direction and in a third direction, each of the second direction and the third direction being perpendicular to the first direction.

In order to be able to slice product pieces, whose cross-section varies along their length, into weight-accurate slices, after pressing to a uniform product caliber it is possible to measure these realistically in terms of cross-sectional area and length and not in a pumped up state of the machine. On the one hand, this is promoted by the fact that even before pressing, a cross-press stamp is set to a forming tube cross-section oriented to the unpressed product piece. On the other hand, this is promoted by the fact that after pressing, by lowering pressing force to a substantially lower holding force, it is possible to deform back the deformed, pumped up machine parts before measuring the product caliber.

A support for enabling cutting of a linear product, such as an eavestrough debris guard, is disclosed. The eavestrough debris guard has a top, two sides, a bottom, and a non-linear profile. The support includes a contoured top complementary to a bottom portion of the non-linear profile. The support includes a plurality of surfaces extending from the contoured top positioned to engage with the two sides of the linear product. The support includes a plurality of contoured portions each coupled to one of the surfaces positioned to engage with the top of the linear product. The support includes a gap passing through the contoured top and the plurality of surfaces shaped and dimensioned to allow passage of at least a portion of a cutting tool.
