  • the knife assembly 50 cuts the flattened tube at predetermined intervals to produce spills 52. Towards this end, the knife is fixed to and. rotates with shaft 152 extending from gear box 154 at an automatically adjustable speed for registry control. Inasmuch as the paper tube 44 is traveling at high speeds, knife 150 is mounted on a universal 155 which permits the knife 150 to be placed at a slight angle to cooperate with and clear surfaces of longitudinally reciprocating ledger 156 as the cut is made. v A cut-off ledger 156 cooperates with knife 150 in cutting the flattened tube.

  • the DC motor 182 speed is controlled by the control 174 making decisions from inputs of photocells 108, 110 and 176.
  • the knife speed is faster than necessary to hold register in order to avoid braking the motor 182 and reversing its direction. Therefore, the DC-motor is always asked to increase its speed whereby the phase shifting differential subtracts from the knife speed.
