Sheet material dividing device

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To improve productivity for sheet material by providing both a traverse conveyor and a upstream return conveyor in a position for receiving an end material, of a conveyor having a plurality of cutters. CONSTITUTION:A sheet material 2 conveyed on a conveyor 4 is divided by a cutter 3 into band-shaped materials 2A and an end material 2B. The band- shaped materials 2A are guided by side plates 25, 24, and conveyed on a conveyor 27 in a Y direction. The end material 2B is forced to fall onto a first traverse conveyor 5 from an opening part 4A of the conveyor 4 and in succession to slide down on a return conveyor 7. The end material is further fed by the return conveyor 7 to a second traverse conveyor 6 and returned to the conveyor 4. With such arrangement, the end material can automatically be returned for improving productivity.
