Title: Leroy H Carlson, Jr: Innovator in Die-Cutting Technology
Introduction
Leroy H Carlson, Jr. is a notable inventor based in Portland, Connecticut. He has made significant contributions to the field of die-cutting technology, holding two patents that showcase his innovative approach to improving manufacturing processes.
Latest Patents
His latest patents include a "Die-cutting roll system with improved scrap disposal capability." This invention features a tandem arrangement of die-cutting rolls that sever scrap from a traveling web in two steps. Each step cuts entirely through the web at different peripheral locations. The partially cut scrap is carried with the remainder of the web from the first roll to the second. Any severed piece that lodges within the cutting element of the second roll is removed by a mechanical scraper that passes through it. Another significant patent is for "Rotary cutting dies with vacuum assist to cut and clear waste." This invention constructs a die-cutting roll designed to cut holes in traveling web materials while effectively clearing and discharging the fragments. A multiplicity of air vent ports communicates with the channel through which the scrap moves to an internal axial passage of the roll, enhancing the vacuum effect applied to one end. This design creates turbulence within the passage and/or mechanical impact to disunite compacted formations of the removed material.
