A sheet sticking apparatus includes a sticking unit that sticks a sheet to a workpiece held by a chuck table and a cutting unit that cuts the stuck sheet. The cutting unit includes a cutting blade that cuts the sheet, a movement unit that raises and lowers the cutting blade from and toward the chuck table or moves the cutting blade along the outer circumference of the workpiece, and a cleaning part that removes adhering things of the cutting blade. The cleaning part is disposed on the trajectory of the cutting blade that moves by the movement unit and executes cleaning by coming into contact with the cutting blade that moves.

A cutting unit of a cutting apparatus includes a fixed flange that is disposed at an end portion of a spindle to support a cutting blade and has a plurality of first gas jetting passages on a periphery thereof for jetting gas radially along a cutting edge of the cutting blade, a detachable flange that sandwiches the cutting blade in cooperation with the fixed flange and has a plurality of second gas jetting passages on a periphery thereof for jetting gas radially along the cutting edge of the cutting blade, a cover covering the cutting blade, the fixed flange, and the detachable flange, and a vacuum unit provided to the cover and configured to suck dust scattered inside the cover.

A suction cutting conveyor of an automatic blade cutting machine for sheet materials, including a plurality of cutting supports rigidly connected to a drive mechanism driven along rectilinear and curvilinear trajectories, each cutting support including a plurality of bristles each having a foot rigidly connected to a sole and a head opposite to the foot and on which a sheet material to be cut is intended to rest, the sole of each cutting support being capable of being able to elastically deform following the trajectories of the drive mechanism.

The sharpening system for cutter blades for cutting flexible materials in automatic cutting machines comprises at least one sharpening element, and it also comprises a first sharpening module that includes at least one first sharpening element, and a second sharpening module that includes at least one second sharpening element. It provides a sharpening system that offers an integral and simple solution to current sharpening systems by incorporating an active sharpening system in the guide plate, either in the rotary area or on the outside, or symmetrically in the upper part of the lower body of the cutting head, interchangeably.

A printer configured to cut recording paper with a fixed blade and a movable blade has a push member configured to push out the movable blade or racks provided at both longitudinal ends of the movable blade, to expose a blade of the movable blade, and the push member is fixed in position while the blade is exposed.

A groove engraving device and a groove engraving method are provided. The groove engraving device includes: a processing chamber for containing a piece to be processed, a cutter for groove engraving on the piece to be processed, a clamping mechanism for clamping the piece to be processed, a driving mechanism for driving the clamping mechanism to rotate, and a temperature controlling device for controlling a temperature inside the processing chamber to be within a preset temperature range. The clamping mechanism and the cutter are disposed inside the processing chamber, and the clamping mechanism is rotatable with respect to the processing chamber. The temperature controlling device is disposed inside the processing chamber. The groove engraving device can improve the processing efficiency and quality of the groove engraving on the piece to be processed.

A method of cleaning a blade of a log saw of a converting line comprises applying a cleaning agent to a saw blade. The saw blade is adapted to cut a log of web material into rolls as the log of web material advances on a conveyor. In an another step of the method the log is advanced on the conveyor for cutting with the saw blade. In another step of the method, the saw blade is cleaned by cutting the log with the saw blade with the cleaning agent applied to the saw blade.

A device includes a first member having a first surface, and a second member having a second surface that is partially or wholly in contact with the first surface. The first member and the second member are configured to operate relatively. The first member has a flow path of a lubricant that has an opening provided in the first surface.

An automated pizza cutter with a blade and a pizza resting on a working surface. Horizontal, vertical and/or rotational relative movement between the blade and the pizza is effected by different embodiments. The working surface can be moved rotationally relative to the blade, and the blade may be moved horizontally and/or vertically relative to the working surface. In one embodiment, a rotatably driven table supports a pizza while a blade disposed above the table is configured to move vertically and horizontally. A programmable user interface allows operation of the cutter. After the cutting process is completed, a blade cleaner wipes the blade of debris, which eliminates cross contamination between different types of pizzas.

An ultrasonic cutting tool for use in an ultrasonic instrument, the tool being a blade manufactured from a tubular blank by flattening a section of the blank. The blade includes a flat section designed to be used for cutting, a tubular section, and a transition section joining the flat section to the tubular section. The tubular section is joined to or includes an attachment section for attaching the blade to an ultrasonic generator and serving as a conduit to bring a cooling fluid to the distal end or to suck particles into the hand tool.
