Abstract

A machine for cutting one or more V-belts from a band of several V-belts and including a base on which are journalled parallel, powered rolls driven as by a hand crank. A frame above the base adjustably supports a carriage positionable transversely of a V-belt band. Wheels of the carriage urge the V-belt into roll engagement to enable the V-belt band to be driven past a carriage supported knife body to sever a web between two V-belts. Preparatory to belt cutting, the frame is positionable upwardly from the machine base about a horizontal axis. The carriage knife body may automatically move transversely of the V-belt band to center a knife blade between adjacent V-belts.
