Abstract

A cutting apparatus consists of two cutter cages arranged in direct superposition, with radially outwardly oriented cutters onto which a textile material to be cut is wound in spiral shape and is cut by a pressure roller effective from the outside radially inwardly. The two cutter cages are constituted by cutter supporting disks attached to a spoked wheel; these disks carry cutters which simultaneously equip the upper and lower cutter cages. By using such an apparatus, it is possible to cut simultaneously two continuous strands with only a single device. It is also possible to arrange more than only two cutter cages in superposition at one apparatus.
