The invention relates to a winding apparatus for winding a material web traveling in a direction of travel, having at least one blade for cutting the material web in a web direction into a plurality of partial material webs, and having a folding apparatus for folding the edges of the partial material webs. To furnish a winding apparatus that enables a material web with folded edges to be wound with as little wrinkling as possible, a folding element is furnished for each edge of the partial material webs. The at least one blade may be moved transversely to the direction of travel using a first oscillating apparatus. Using a second oscillating apparatus, the folding elements for the left-hand edges of the partial material webs, as viewed in the direction of travel, may be moved transversely to the direction of travel. Using a third oscillating apparatus, the folding elements for the right-hand edges of the partial material webs, as viewed in the direction of travel, may be moved transversely to the direction of travel. The first oscillating apparatus, second oscillating apparatus and third oscillating apparatus may be controlled by a control unit in such a manner that the folded edges of the partial material webs may be wound at an offset to one another.

A cutter unit includes a first frame, a fixed blade, a movable blade, a movable blade drive mechanism and a pressure mechanism. The fixed blade has a first cutting edge portion. One end portion of the movable blade has one end configured to cut a cut item in cooperation with the first cutting edge portion. The second cutting edge portion and the first cutting edge portion contacting with each other at a first point and a second point. Another end portion of the movable blade has a contacting portion in contact with the first frame at a third point. The first point, the second point and the third point define an imaginary triangle. The pressure member presses the movable blade at a pressure contact position so that the movable blade presses against the fixed blade. The pressure contact position is positioned substantially within the imaginary triangle.

Tools for crimping or cutting of an object such as a wire, cable, or connector. The tool includes a first member and a second member configured to come together through a gap to crimp or cut a wire, cable or connector and a laser positioned to visually indicate a region where at least one member traverses as the first and second member come together through the gap. This visual indication aids in alignment of the object for the crimping or cutting operation.

Discussed is an electrode lead cutting apparatus for battery cells, the electrode lead cutting apparatus including a cell fixing unit configured to fix a battery cell, an electrode lead fixing unit configured to supply air to an electrode lead of the battery cell in order to fix a point of the electrode lead to be cut, and an electrode lead cutting unit configured to cut the point of the electrode lead to be cut.

A manual automatic device configured for fitting cable ties around a bundle of cables or the like. The device includes a control interface allowing the user of the device to choose an operating mode that tightens but does not cut the cable tie and in which the electric motor which drives the cable tie in tension is controlled in reverse rotation to eject the cable tie before cutting. A method for controlling the device is also presented herein.

The present invention relates to a cutting equipment having a cutting device with a cutting element and a drive device for the cutting element. The drive device includes a pneumatically driven piston/cylinder arrangement and a switch valve having a high-pressure input port, a high-pressure output port and a low-pressure output port, with the high-pressure input port coupled to a high-pressure source, the high-pressure output port coupled to a first cylinder chamber and the low-pressure output port coupled to a second cylinder chamber. The switch valve connects the high-pressure input port to the high-pressure output port upon application of a pressurized fluid, and connects the high-pressure output port to the low-pressure output port upon reduction of the pressure level of the pressurized fluid. The present invention further relates to a clipping machine for producing sausage-shaped products, including said cutting equipment, and a method for controlling the cutting equipment.
