Abstract

The invention relates to end cutters, in particular for cutting through cables, having two flat loose blades which are located one on top of the other, and rotatable about a common rotation shaft and can be driven by means of a drive device. Each loose blade is in this case acted on by a suitable cam disc which is located in the plane of the blade and is coupled to the drive device. A desired force response while cutting up material in the form of ropes can be achieved in a simple manner by selection of the radii of the cam discs.
