Abstract

A device to assemble cutter assemblies of cutters and spacers for a slitter for slitting coils of steel, aluminum, plastic or other material. The storage region of cutters and spacers uses the head room above the floor-area and is served by a robot that is able to simultaneously carry several tool units. The storage region contains storage units which project substantially vertically from the floor. The storage units include substantially horizontal projections for storage of the cutters and spacers.
