Abstract
An automatic routing device for sheets made of plastic material utilized especially in compound panes has a cutting head with a band having a sharp edge in the form of a band saw blade. The cutting head is mounted to a structure allowing the cutting head to move along three orthogonal cartesian axes and to rotate along two orthogonal rotation axes. An electronic and numeric command and control device is provided to control the head.
