Abstract
A separating device for cutting off individual containers (12) from a frame network made of a plastic material, particularly of polypropylene, has at least one punching device at least partially separating the containers (12) from a waste frame. Because the punching device can be moved by a ball screw drive (46) that can be driven by a drive unit, particularly in the form of an eclectic motor (48), along a punching axis (44) from a starting position to a punching position and back again, the separation can be done at high speed, determined by the screw shaft that can be driven by the electric motor.
Claims20
A separating device for separating individual plastic container products from a frame assemblage, comprising:
- at least one punching device at least partially separating a plastic container product from a plastic frame waste and being movable between initial position into a punching position along a punching axis;
- a ball screw driven by a drive unit operatively coupled to said punching device to move said punching device between said initial position and said punching position along said punch axis;
- and
- a damping system operatively coupled to said ball screw and preventing overloading of said ball screw, said damping system including at least one energy storage decoupling said punching device from said ball screw.
