    摘要: A method and system (10) are provided for automatically portioning workpieces (14) using a rotating blade (22) passing through narrow gap (20) formed between the ends of adjacent conveyors (12) and (18). A scanning system (16) scans the workpieces (14) to physically characterize the workpieces and control the operation of the blade (22), including its rotational speed. The portioning of the workpiece can be carried out in accordance with one or more directly-controlled characteristics (parameter/specifications), such as a cutting path of the blade (22), the rotational speed of the blade (22), and the speed of the conveyor (12). The directly-controlled characteristics may be varied until an acceptable set of one or more indirectly-controlled characteristics is achieved, including, for example, the weight of the cut portions, the quality of the cuts achieved by the cutting blade, and the throughput of the portioning system (10).

    摘要: A sheet cutting apparatus includes a cutting position where a sheet is cut; a guillotine type cutter configured to move between the cutting position and a home position above the cutting position; a motor; a drive mechanism configured to transfer a drive force from the motor to the cutter to move the cutter between the home position and the cutting position; a drive control section configured to enable the cutter to fall from the home position to the cutting position when cutting a sheet by the cutter and then return the cutter to the home position; a determination section configured to determine whether or not a given period of time elapses from the last return completion of the cutter to the home position; and a return control section configured to return the cutter to the home position if the determination section determines that a given period of time elapses from the last return completion of the cutter to the home position.
