Abstract
An apparatus for longitudinally slitting a roll of sheet material is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a frame having a supply roll shaft mounted at one end and a take-up roll shaft mounted at the other end, the take-up roll being connected to a drive means. A knife means adjustably mounted on the frame is located between the supply and take-up rolls. The frame is pivotably mounted on a support frame and driven by hydraulic means so as to permit the tilting or lowering of either end of the frame to allow loading and/or unloading of the supply and take-up rolls as well as maintaining a horizontal working position for the frame.
