Abstract
A method of removing the front and rear segments of a rolled wire fed in winding packages subdivided into good stock and into scrap windings separated by cutting movements corresponding substantially to the transporting movement of the winding packages. The windings spirally or helically surround a guidepipe element. Several cutting wheels rotate in the region of the upper surface of the guide-pipe element. The cutting wheels, together with counter knives, which stand still during the cutting procedure, form a separating device. The peripheral speed of the cutting wheel and cutters corresponds at least substantially to the transporting speed of the winding packages. A stop element, an intermediately connected adjustable time member or timer, and the counter knives are controlled by at least one sensor unit which operates free of engagement or free of contact therewith and which generates at least one control impulse as a function of at least one predetermined winding number--from which the number of scrap windings to be removed is derived.
