Abstract:
The invention relates to a cutting device (1) for cutting stacked sheet-metal plates into sheet-metal strips using a cutting unit (12). Holding and positioning means (25 to 29 and 13 to 16) are arranged above said stack. This makes a space-saving arrangement possible while maintaining a high degree of cutting precision. The cut sheet-metal strips are fed to another cutting unit by collectively feeding all strips up to a separating point. This simplifies the feeding device and the adaptation thereof to different sheet-metal thickness.
