Abstract:
A cutting arrangement for cutting sheet webs by successive cutting through the sheet webs comprising a knife having a sharp edge with a predetermined maximum resilient deformation, an anvil and means for pressing the knife toward the anvil for cutting through the sheet webs; wherein the knife edge has shoulder portions on each of opposite ends thereof; and wherein corresponding abutment portions are provided on the anvil, the shoulder portions of the knife being positioned at a distance relative to the abutment portions on the anvil which causes the shoulder portions on the knife to abut the abutment portions on the anvil subsequent to said knife edge contacting said anvil but before said knife edge deforms to an extent exceeding said predetermined maximum deformation so as to prevent damage to the knife edge upon a full pressing together of the shoulder portions of the knife edge against the abutment portions on the anvil.
