Abstract
An apparatus for sizing at a single workstation pleated shades and mini blinds in a particular dimension uses a sizing device that includes hydraulic actuated horizontal and vertical blades and a cutting rail assembly. The hydraulic actuated horizontal and vertical blades are used to respectively cut the components of a pleated shade or a mini blind, such as head rails, bottom rails and a pleated blind or aluminum slats. The horizontal and the vertical blades are sequentially operated to prevent the blades from colliding with each other. The cutting rail assembly has multiple stacked guiding blocks so that the pleated shade and the mini blind can be held in different tiers and be simultaneously cut at the single workstation.
