Автор: Göran Johansson
Принадлежит: ROLLSROLLER AB

A cutting device for cutting predetermined figures out of an elongated, thin portion of a plastically deformable material, comprising a table top, which exhibits a planar table surface for supporting the elongated portion. According to the invention, the cutting device has two elongated guide and support means at each long side of the table top, and a traverser, which is movable along these means and in the longitudinal direction (L) of the table top, and which extends transversely to the table top perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction and comprises a rotatable cutter roll, which extends across the major part of the width (b) of the table top and comprises cutting elements, wherein the traverser is adapted to be moved along the guide and support means with the cutter roll in a cutting position for cutting out said figures, and rotating means for causing the cutter roll to rotate, during the movement of the cutter roll in the cutting position, at a peripheral speed substantially corresponding to the translational speed of the cutter roll across the table surface.

METHOD OF AND APPARATUS FOR MAKING MESH-LIKE METAL MATS

Номер: US20130216851A1
Автор: STAHL Karl-Hermann
Принадлежит:

The method serves for producing network-like metal mats from metallic strip material, for which purpose the strip material is first provided with notches (), running parallel to one another, for the forming of metal wires (), by means of notching rollers. The notches () are thereby formed to such depths, depending on the material, that as far as possible no sliding fractures are formed. The notches () are interrupted by unnotched regions—the mutual spacing of which in the respective notch () determines the later possible mesh width—at least in such a way that they later form network nodes (). The network nodes () are offset by approximately half a network node spacing in the respectively adjacent notches (). Then, the strip, formed in this manner, is subjected to a flexing process, in which the webs () adjoining the base of the notch and still connecting the metal wires () to one another undergo multiple bending deformation about the longitudinal axis thereof in such a way that incipient cracks occur as a result of fatigue fracture. This leads to the complete separation of the metal wires () in the region of the webs (), while no incipient cracks form at the network nodes (). Finally, the strip material is subjected to transverse tensile forces acting on both its peripheral metal wires (), whereby a widening deformation of the wire strip () into a network-like structure takes place. 1. A method of making mesh-like metal mats from metal strip material , whereinthe strip material is provided with parallel grooves by notch-rolling so as to create metal wires,the grooves are made sufficiently deep, depending on the material, that to the greatest extent possible no shear fractures are created,the grooves are interrupted in at least one way by unnotched regions whose spacing in the given notch determines the subsequent possible mesh width such that these subsequently form mesh crossings,the mesh crossings in the respective adjacent grooves are offset by approximately half ...

A feed and cutting unit for selectively cutting and dispensing individual weight material segments from a common strip of backing material is disclosed. The feed and cutting unit comprises a feed assembly, a sensor and a cutter member. The feed assembly includes a drive roller and a follower roller that frictionally engages first and second surfaces of a strip of weight material to selectively move the strip of weight material to a cutter member. The sensor is connected to a controller and measures an amount of segmented weight material on the backing material as the strip of weight material moves past the sensor. The cutter member is actuated to separate weight material segments from the backing material by cutting at least a portion of the backing material in a gap disposed between adjacent segments. Weight apply devices that receive the segments for application to an imbalanced member, are also disclosed.

Принадлежит: Tech Met Inc

Systems and methods for etching complex patterns on an interior surface of a hollow object are disclosed. A method generally includes positioning a laser system within the hollow object with a focal point of the laser focused on the interior surface, and operating the laser system to form the complex pattern on the interior surface. Motion of the laser system and the hollow object is controlled by a motion control system configured to provide rotation and/or translation about a longitudinal axis of one or both of the hollow object and the laser system based on the complex pattern, and change a positional relationship between a reflector and a focusing lens of the laser system to accommodate a change in distance between the reflector and the interior surface of the hollow object.
