Processing of cut-to-length goods

Abstract

The invention concerns a processing station for the processing or production of cut-to-length goods ( 12 ) with guide elements ( 1,2 ) and, optionally, a feed device ( 3,4 ) for the cut-to-length goods, wherein the processing station has a transport mechanism ( 9 ) for the cut-to-length goods, independent of the feed device which may be present.

1 . Processing station for the processing or production of cut-to-length goods ( 12 ) with guides ( 1 , 2 ) and optionally, a feed device ( 3 , 4 ) for cut-to-length goods, characterized in that the processing station has a transport mechanism ( 9 ) for the cut-to-length goods, which is independent of the feed device which may be present.  
   
   
       2 . Processing station according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the transport mechanism ( 9 ) is directly located in the area of the work station, preferably in the area of the guide elements ( 1 , 2 ).  
   
   
       3 . Processing station according to  claim 1  or  2 , characterized in that the guide elements ( 1 , 2 ) and, optionally, the feed device ( 3 , 4 ) can be detached or affixed by adjusting drives ( 7 , 8 ), that the adjusting drives are actuated by a control device, and that sensors ( 6 ) of a magnetic, electronic, optical, or haptic constitution, which are connected to the control device, detect the geometric dimensions of the continuous material ( 12 ) and pass them on to the control device, so that the guide elements ( 1 , 2 ) and, optionally, the feed device ( 3 , 4 ) are adapted, in a changing phase, to the actual dimensions of the continuous material ( 12 ), newly supplied by the transport mechanism, and are fixed in the adapted position.
