Abstract
The apparatus according to the invention comprises a cutting wheel (1) provided with a multiplicity of cutting knives (3) disposed in a circle in a knife mount (2) and spaced apart at predetermined distances corresponding to the desired staple, at least one pressure roller (4) for producing on the wound material in sliver or strand form a cutting pressure acting on the cutting knives (3), an opening and closing device (5) by means of which the pressure roller (4) can be moved a predetermined distance away from the cutting wheel (1) or towards the cutting wheel (21), an adjusting member (6) by which a preset distance can be adjusted between the pressure roller (4) and the cutting knife (3) lying nearest to said pressure roller (4), a damping means (7) by which, in conjunction with the adjusting means (6), the contact pressure exerted by the pressure roller (4) on the material in sliver or strand form lying on the knives (3) can be so adjusted that the cutting power of the apparatus remains practically unchanged within a preset contact pressure range, and a distance measuring device (8) by which the distance between the pressure roller (4) and the cutting knife (3) situated closest to the pressure roller (4) can be monitored.
