Abstract
The base of the apparatus has the form of a claw clamp with two grips for gripping a rail that are kinematically linked with a clamping cylinder. The apparatus incorporates an upper cutter and side cutters, mounted so that, with the claw clamp closed, the cutting edges of the cutters form an outline embracing the cross-sectional perimeter of the rail. Each side cutter is hinged to the respective grip and mounted thereon for a displacement parallel to the axis of symmetry of the outline formed by the cutting edges of the cutters. The upper cutter is kinematically linked with the rod of the clamping cylinder via a clearance take-up mechanism which provides for lifting the upper cutter and the side cutters hinged thereto to engage the side cutters with the rail foot underside.
