Cutting device UK-1 is intended for use in a cutting room for cutting materials of substantial stiffness and thickness (for example: felt, soundproofing mats, stiff insulation sheets and needled cloths, upholster wets and elements for mattress production).



Following elements are included in the device:

* cutting table,
* transverse knife,
* pneumatic set strip,
* instrumentation for mounting of cutting material,
* sliding bumper to set length of cutting material.

The cutting table consists of stable, bolted construction, which is made on the basis of steel closed profiles and working table top of laminated chipboard of thickness 25 mm, finished angles aluminium.
The height of the table, length and width accommodate individuality to client. The construction is provided with adjusting screws facilitate its level.

Transverse cutting knife is fastened to working table top. Its construction is based on overhead travelling crane, that is, is based on roll formed rail which is placed over working table top moves bearing trolley with propulsion motor and cutting knife.

A cutting blade immerses in inlet port more or less 5-7 mm in slit in the cutting knife and moved across the table.

Travelling knife relative to rail takes place thanks to the gear unit and elastic leading line. The source of torque is the same motor which drives the cutting blade.

This solution has good point – through stiff and hard cutting material displaces only blade of thickness about 1 mm (lack leg and foot of traditional cutting knife, which cause serious resistances of travelling), is energy-saving – one motor acts 2 functions. Next asset this solution is cutting in two directions.

The cutting knife after cutting of material, thanks to limit switches, automatically stops at the and of traffic rail, next have place transport of material and again turned on knife changes automatically direction of revolutions of motor and cuts also on the way back. The cutting knife is fit with sharpening machine; we can also to adjust its height over working top table as far as the blade is run down.

Pneumatic set strip causes immobilization the cutting material, is consists of steel profile closed, backed elastic foam and two pneumatic servo-motors. Working pressure from 3–5 atm regulated depending on the needed force of the pressure. Steering movement of set strip by means of manual lever (so called joystick).

Cutting material can be mounted into standard trolley standing directly behind the cutting table or in special basket fix to construction of the table.

* Supply voltage – 3 phase ~3faz/ 380V
* Engine power of transverse tool 250W
* Quantity of revolutions per minute of transverse knife-edge 1450 obr./ min
* Transverse knife-edge diameter 125 mm
* Thickness of material (cross-cutting) max.25 mm
* Speed of cutting ~0,5 m/ s
