Abstract

A cutting apparatus is capable of cutting a work-piece depending upon the quality of the work-piece. The cutting apparatus produces parallelism between a knife edge of a cutting blade and a mounting face of the work-piece. A support having the blade is provided to a column capable of controlling a tilting angle of the blade in a blade length direction. Cutting is executed by controlling vertical movement of the blade. A driving source is capable of controlling movement linearly. The driving source produces a parallel relationship between a surface of a table and a knife edge. Different supports are each unitized to include a driving source and the blade vertically moved by the driving source. The different supports can be mounted interchangeably and selectively on a column of a cutting apparatus.
