A cutter is configured to be mounted to a push rod of a caulking gun. The push rod includes a pushing portion for pushing a container containing a caulking material and a rear end portion opposite to the pushing portion. The cutter includes: an assembling portion, configured to be mounted at the rear end portion of the push rod;

and a cutting portion, connected with the assembling portion and including a cutting member. A caulking gun including the cutter is further provided.

An apparatus for the orbital cutting and calibration of tubes is provided. The apparatus has a rotor having a central hole through which a tube to be cut is movable along its longitudinal axis, the rotor being drivable to rotate about a first axis of rotation coinciding in use with the longitudinal axis of the tube that is supplied to the apparatus. The apparatus has a cutting device having a first support body mounted radially movable on the rotor and a cutting tool carried by the first support body, and a calibration device having a second support body mounted to be radially movable on the rotor and a calibration tool carried by the second support body.

A peeler device removes a thin layer from the outer surface of the end of a plastic pipe or tapping tee. In the preferred embodiments, the device has a main body and a mandrel. The pipe to be peeled is pushed onto the mandrel when the mandrel is in an out position. As the main body is rotated, a blade advances onto the plastic pipe and peels a thin layer off the outer surface of the pipe as it is advanced. The main body is rotated until peeling is complete. There may be a sight window in the main body to permit visual confirmation of when peeling is complete. A spring loaded blade lever is actuated to raise the blade and the pipe is pulled out of the main body.

A knife is provided for a cutting device for cutting continuous rods in a manufacturing process, the knife including: a knife body having a distal end and a proximal end opposite the distal end, the knife body configured to be attached to a cutting device; and a cutting edge located at the distal end of the knife body, the cutting edge including at least two cutting edge segments, each cutting edge segment including a profile, the profile including one maximum protrusion from the knife body, and at least a portion of a second cutting edge segment of the at least two cutting edge segments protruding, from the knife body, to a greater extent than the maximum protrusion of a first cutting edge segment of the at least two cutting edge segments, from the knife body. A cutting device, and a method of manufacturing a cutting device, are also provided.

A cutting device for cutting a pipe having a pipe wall includes an elongate carrier having a tool end which is engageable with a power tool, and a free end. The device includes a guide wheel located at the free end of the carrier, which is mounted thereon for rotation relative thereto, having a bearing surface extending parallel to a longitudinal axis of the carrier. The device also includes a cutting element having a peripheral cutting edge which is located adjacent to the guide wheel being positioned intermediate the guide wheel and the tool end. The cutting element is of greater transverse dimension than the guide wheel so that when the bearing surface bears against an internal surface of the pipe the distance between the cutting edge of the cutting element and the bearing surface enables the cutting element to cut through the pipe wall.

Disclosed is a cutting device (1) for fabricating a fiber-based shell (10). The cutting device (1) has a first mandrel (20) which can rotate about an axis of rotation (D1) and on which the fiber-based shell (10) can be arranged. The cutting device (1) has a knife (30) which can rotate about an axis of rotation (M). The axis of rotation (D) of the first mandrel (20) and the axis of rotation (M) of the knife (30) are adjacent to each other.

A paint roller manufacturing system and method are described. In an embodiment, an inner strip of material and an outer strip of material are wound about a mandrel in offset relation. The inner strip of material and the outer strip of material each comprise material that results in a final paint roller which shrinks by less than 2.5 percent of the final paint roller axial length, or which has shrinkage that varies by less +/−0.1%, upon hardening and setting. An adhesive is applied to at least a portion of the outer strip as it is wound about the mandrel. A length of fabric is wound about at least the outer strip to form a paint roller tube, and compression is applied to the paint roller tube while advancing the paint roller tube in a direction parallel to the mandrel.

A method cuts an extruded pipe to length using a separating device. The separating device includes a separator rotating about an extrusion axis of the extruded pipe, the separator being rotatably mounted in the separating device, and cutting tools being arranged on the separator. The cutting tools are configured to carry out the separation. The method includes transferring energy to move the cutting tools. The energy is transferred from a stationary outer region of the separating device to a movable inner region of the separating device. The energy is transferred continuously or cyclically and the transferred energy is buffered in an energy storage device. The energy is transferred inductively or capacitively. A discharge time of the energy storage device is between 2% and 25% of a total separation cycle.

In the disclosed solution, a device for chamfering a pipe (1) end has a body part (6) having means for fastening it to an adapter (9) to be placed in a chuck of a handheld drill. The body part (6) further has at least two formed parts such as pins (7), facing forward from the body part (6) and adaptable to settle inside the pipe (1) to be chamfered. On the outer rim of the body part (6), there are chamfering means to chamfer the outer edge of the end of the pipe (1).
