A cutting unit (10) for industrial sectors, especially suitable for cutting of flexible or semi-rigid materials such as paper and cardboard, non-woven fabric, spunbond, spunlace and the like into strips of various widths, intended for example for the manufacture of hygienic products such as nappies, sanitary towels, face masks, as well as tissue, tape, packaging and cardboard cores, comprising a supporting structure or casing (12) paired with a flange (14) for supporting the cutting tool (16) consisting of a ring. That said motor is of the torque type in which the rotor (18) and the stator (20) are housed in a seat made along the front face of the casing (12) which is also provided with a housing (28) inside which the control drive (30) of said motor is positioned.

An apparatus for manufacturing an electrode assembly according to the present invention includes a conveyor configured to allow an electrode to travel; and a cutter configured to cut the traveling electrode to a predetermined size, wherein the cutter comprises: an upper cutting blade disposed above the electrode; an upper eccentric driver configured to eccentrically drive the upper cutting blade; a lower cutting blade disposed below the electrode in a direction corresponding to the upper cutting blade; and a lower eccentric driver configured to eccentrically drive the lower cutting blade.

An arrangement for automatically removing a strip of dark meat from a fish fillet has a conveying unit for transporting the fish fillet from an inlet to an outlet area in a transport direction along a transport path. Starting from the inlet area, successively along the transport path, are provided: a detector for detecting dark meat; a first cutting apparatus for removing a middle partial strip of dark meat; an opener for opening up the fillet such that the cut surfaces of a ventral-side partial and of a dorsal-side partial strip of dark meat point upwards; a cutting unit for removing the partial strips, the cutting unit comprising second and third cutting apparatuses for removing the ventral and dorsal-side partial strips. A control device is connected to the detector and the cutting apparatus, and all cuts are based on information from the detector.

A cutting machine includes a working surface, a carriage, a tool, and a drive mechanism. The carriage is disposed above the working surface. The tool is removably secured to the carriage and configured to move (i) toward the working surface along a first axis, (ii) relative to the working surface along a second axis transverse to the first axis, and (iii) relative to the working surface along a third axis transverse to the first axis and the second axis. The drive mechanism is offset from the first axis and configured to move the tool along the first axis.

Disclosed is a cutter module to be used with a printing apparatus. The cutter module comprises a blade driving mechanism; and a rotary cutting blade driven by the blade driving mechanism. The blade driving mechanism comprises: a clutch mechanism selectively to enable the blade driving mechanism to drive the rotary cutting blade in a forward cutting direction or a backward direction. Also disclosed is a printing system comprising the cutter module and a method to be used with the cutter module.

A material cutting device includes a rotatably mounted tool holder configured to carry a cutting tool and a drive for rotating the tool holder. The drive includes an electric motor with a rotor and a stator. The axis of rotation of the rotor of the electric motor and the axis of rotation of the tool holder are arranged coaxially. The stator encloses the rotor over an angle of less than 360 degrees.

A hand-held knockout punch driver includes a housing, a motor positioned within the housing, a head unit removably coupled to the housing, the head unit including a body, an input member movable relative to the body, and a draw rod to which at least one of a punch or a die is attachable. The draw rod is configured to move axially relative to the body in response to movement of the input member relative to the body. A quick-release mechanism removably couples the body to the housing and includes radially inward-extending locking members on one of the housing or the head unit and a plurality of radially outward-extending locking members on the other of the housing or the head unit engageable with the radially inward-extending locking members to lock the head unit to the housing.

An example system includes a cutting tool and a device configured to remotely control the cutting tool. The device is configured to establish a wireless communication with the cutting tool, and the cutting tool is configured to send a first signal to the device indicating that the cutting tool is enabled to be operated remotely responsive to the cutting tool receiving information indicating that a trigger is locked in an “on” state and a remote switch is in a first position. The device is configured to send a second signal to the cutting tool indicating a request to cause the cutting tool to perform a cutting operation responsive to receiving information indicative of actuation of at least one button of a user interface of the device.

A cutter includes a main body, a cog assembly, and a blade. The main body is provided with an anvil. The cog assembly includes a drive shaft and a first and a second cog. The drive shaft is rotatably connected to the main body. The drive shaft has a first end configured to detachably connect which a power tool. The first cog moves synchronously with the drive shaft. The second cog is rotatably connected to the main body and rotates upon rotation of the first cog. The blade is rotatably connected to the main body and connected to the second cog. The blade is rotatable between a deployment position and a cutting position and has a cutting edge. The cutting edge is disposed away from the anvil when the blade is in the deployment position, but is adjacent to the anvil when the blade is in the cutting position.
