An apparatus for forming and sealing a duct member for use in an air handling system. At least one work station accommodates a work piece, which is generally a cylindrical tube.

The lubrication device delivers a lubricant to the perforating device which provides intermittently spaced cuts to a moving web, also referred to as perforations. The lubrication device includes a retaining member, a plenum, and a comb having a plurality of comb channels. The plenum and the plurality of comb channels are in fluid communication with one another and deliver a lubricant to the perforating device. Lubrication of the perforating device in this manner may improve knife life, perforation quality and web handling.

A cutting device and corresponding method for cutting a relatively rigid material), such as for example paper, cardboard, plastic material, composite or other. The cutting device includes a first cutting disc sharpened along its peripheral edge and rotating around its a first axis of rotation. A second cutting disc, also sharpened along its peripheral edge (and rotating around a first axis of rotation (X3), is disposed in front of the first cutting disc with respect to the material and is co-planar with the first cutting disc (14).

An adjustment mechanism for an anvil roll has a body with first and second ends and a hollow interior. A bore extends from the first end into the hollow interior. The body is mountable to an axial end of the anvil roll at the first end. The hollow interior has first and second adjustment drives. The first adjustment drive extends from the second end of the body into the hollow interior and comprises a gear train with drive gears extending between a first adjustment operator and a first shaft extending from the body hollow interior through the bore of the body to the first end of the body. The second adjustment drive comprises a gear train with drive gears extending between a second adjustment operator and a second shaft extending from the hollow interior through the bore of the body to the first end of the body.

A cutting apparatus for cutting a food object includes at least one cutting blade, an actuator arranged for moving the cutting blade before and during cutting, and an element comprising a receiving section arranged for receiving and abutting the cutting blade, and a supporting section arranged for supporting a food object before and during cutting. During cutting, the supporting section is arranged for being displaced, such as displaced by elastic deformation, by the cutting blade with respect to a position of the supporting section prior to cutting. During moving of the cutting blade, the cutting blade is arranged for displacing the supporting section subsequent to the cutting blade abutting the receiving section. The cutting blade and the element are arranged for being continuously in contact with each other.

A machine and a method to carry out workings on a sheet of a sufficiently rigid material is suitable to make containers. The machine includes a transverse working head guided by a first transverse guide member, one or more longitudinal working heads, each selectively positionable in a desired transverse position, guided by at least a second transverse guide member parallel to the first transverse guide member; and positioning mechanism configured to cooperate with each longitudinal working head in order to selectively position it in the desired transverse position.

A laminated film, including an adhesive layer peelably laminated on a base film, and a carrier film overlapping each other are passed between a bladed roller including a plurality of disk-shaped slitting blades arranged at a pitch of 0.5 mm or less and an anvil roller with the laminated film on the bladed roller side to slit the laminated film by score cutting. The slitting blades have a blade angle of 30° or less. By doing so, the laminated film including the adhesive layer peelably laminated on the base film is silt to have a tape width of 0.5 mm or less in such a way that the base film and the adhesive layer do not peel apart and the protrusion of the adhesive layer is suppressed.
