Abstract

An apparatus for cutting tubing to predetermined lengths while the tubing is being produced. The apparatus includes a cutting or shearing assembly comprising a die-set which having a cutting blade. The die-set is translated to a velocity which matches the line velocity of the tubing as it is produced. A press assembly acutates the cutting blade. The apparatus has a controller which calculates the maximum cutting time available, and the press assembly is instructed to rotate at the slowest rate possible, depending upon the line velocity. By causing the cutting blade to move as slowly as possible through the tubing, the life of the cutting blade is prolonged.
