Abstract
Disclosed is a cutting device and a method for cutting a continuous strip into tire components. The cutting device includes a knife for cutting the continuous strip along a cutting line in a working plane and a feeding assembly with a feeding member for feeding the continuous strip in the working plane to the knife in a feeding direction that intersects with the cutting line at a cutting angle. The feeding member, and the knife are rotatable with respect to each other about a rotation axis perpendicular to the working plane for adjusting the cutting angle. The feeding assembly further includes an input member for receiving the continuous strip in an input direction into the cutting device and one or more guide members for guiding the continuous strip from the input member to the feeding member, wherein the input member is placed in line with or substantially in line with the rotation axis.
