A separating device cuts an extruded pipe to length. The separating device has a separator that is rotatably mounted and rotates about an extrusion axis. Cutting tools are arranged on the separator and move in accordance with received energy. An electromechanical drive can move a carrier that supports a cutting tool. The electromechanical drive and the carrier are on a rotating receiver of the separator. An element for energy transfer is connected to a moving part of the rotating receiver, the element being coupled to an energy supplier arranged on the rotating receiver. The energy and control commands are transmitted to the electromechanical drive via the element for energy transfer and the energy supplier. The electromechanical drive, the carrier, or the cutting tool can yield to a force counter to a separating force if that force is greater than a required separating force for cutting the extruded pipe.

Device and method for cutting an extruded pipe to length

A method cuts an extruded pipe to length using a separating device. The separating device includes a separator rotating about an extrusion axis of the extruded pipe, the separator being rotatably mounted in the separating device, and cutting tools being arranged on the separator. The cutting tools are configured to carry out the separation. The method includes transferring energy to move the cutting tools. The energy is transferred from a stationary outer region of the separating device to a movable inner region of the separating device. The energy is transferred continuously or cyclically and the transferred energy is buffered in an energy storage device. The energy is transferred inductively or capacitively. A discharge time of the energy storage device is between 2% and 25% of a total separation cycle.

A calibration and cooling tank of an extrusion line, which connects to an extrusion tool, wherein a vacuum can be applied to the calibration and cooling tank for calibrating the plastic melt emerging from the extrusion tool, wherein the calibration and cooling tank extends along an extrusion axis. The calibration and cooling tank is modularly structured, wherein at least one module forms a calibration and cooling section and the module has a connection region on both sides to which an additional module can be attached. The connection region includes a flange that extends from the base element of the calibration and cooling tank to the outside.

Cooling and vacuum tank

A device, and a corresponding method, for supporting and/or guiding a plastics profile in a calibration station and/or other downstream devices, has at least one support unit in the calibration station and/or in at least one of the downstream devices. The support unit has at least one support element, and the support element is disposed on a beam and can be moved in a parallel manner toward or away from the theoretical central axis, the extrusion axis.

Process and apparatus for supporting a plastic profile

A device for cutting a preferably thick-walled extruded pipe to length, has at least one cutting tool and a receiving unit for the cutting tool, wherein the cutting tool is movable radially with respect to the extension axis and is rotatable by a further means about the pipe to be cut to length, in order to cut the pipe to length. The receiving unit preferably has two toothed rods arranged in a block, wherein the first toothed rod is movable back and forth axially and the second toothed rod radially with respect to the extension axis, the axial movement is converted into a radial movement, and the cutting tool is arranged on the second toothed rod.

Device for cutting extruded plastics profiles to length

A device for cutting a preferably thick-walled, extruded pipe to length, has at least one cutting tool and a receiving unit for the cutting tool. The cutting tool is radially movable in relation to the extrusion axis, is rotatable via a further component about the pipe to be cut to length, in order to cut the pipe to length, and is in operative connection with a ring element, which ring element can be moved via an axial drive, and the depth of penetration of the cutting tool and the path of movement can be defined using an adjustment unit. The depth of penetration of the cutting tool and the path of movement can be defined via the axial drive, wherein toothed rails can be moved more or less in order to achieve the desired depth of penetration.

Device for cutting extruded plastic profiles to length
