Abstract

The subject of the invention is a device for simultaneous shearing of two sheet metal blanks comprising, for each sheet metal blank, an assembly formed, on the one hand, by a support member of the corresponding sheet metal blank comprising a rectilinear cutting edge and, on the other hand, by a movable cutter provided with a rectilinear cutting edge designed to interact with the cutting edge of the corresponding support member. The cutting edges of the two support members and cutters assemblies are situated in a same reference plane P and the support members extend on either side of the reference plane P. The invention applies to installations for welding by laser beam of two sheet metal blanks placed edge to edge.
