Abstract
A continuous material, such as a block of urethane foam, is moved at a constant speed in a longitudinal direction on an infeed conveyor. A stationary cutting platen is situated at the end of the infeed conveyor. A cutting saw is movable in the longitudinal and vertical direction above the platen. A piece of the material, once cut, is carried away by an outfeed conveyor adjacent the platen. The movement of the conveyors and the longitudinal and vertical movements of the cutting saw are coordinated so that the cut of the material is always completed over the cutting platen.
