Abstract

A tool cylinder, whether it is a cutting cylinder or a counter-cylinder, is formed by a carrier cylinder having an outer shell formed by a plurality of segments arranged on the cutting cylinder. The outer surface of the shell formed by the segments in a gap-free manner is machined to provide the desired shape. If the tool cylinder is a cutting tool cylinder, this includes a cylindrical surface with a pattern of knife blades extending radially from the cylindrical surface. If the tool cylinder is a counter-cylinder, this includes a smooth cylindrical surface.
