Fusion cutting of thermoplastic sheets and textile webs involving bonding of the cut edges is achieved with excellent quality without the accumulation of dirt particles, if the material to be cut is subjected, in the area of the intended cut, to pre-stamping and cutting in immediate succession, under heat and with precise guidance of the separator device in relation to the pre-stamping device, said pre-stamping and cutting being effected in such a way that the plane of symmetry through the pre-stamping device, which plane of symmetry extends perpendicularly to and in the same direction as the material web, is identical to the plane of symmetry extending through the separator device.

Method for the fusion cutting of thermoplastic sheets and textile webs

A change-over device comprising several connecting tubes is arranged before the coating station in order that during the coating of photographic silver halide emulsions the coating operation need not be interrupted when changing from one emulsion type to the other thus allowing direct coating of one of the emulsions which are fed from the supply containers while the remaining emulsions are recycled into the emulsion line by means of a pressure regulating valve. The outlet of an emulsion is effected by a rotational and lifting movement of the changeover piston.
