DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CUTTING PLASTIC PRODUCTS PROVIDED IN A CONTINUOUS PLASTIC BAND FOR USE IN THE MEDICAL SECTOR

摘要

The present invention describes a device for cutting interconnected plastic products for use in the medical sector provided in a continuous band of plastic, comprising at least one laser, at least one laser control system and at least one optical acquisition and data processing unit. Furthermore, the present invention is directed to a device for the manufacture of plastic products, especially tillable or filled plastic containers for use in the medical sector, comprising the device for cutting interconnected plastic products provided in a continuous band of plastic as well as a process for cutting interconnected plastic products provided in a continuous band of plastic. In particular the present invention is directed to a device for cutting interconnected plastic products for use in the medical sector provided in a continuous band of plastic, wherein the device comprises at least one laser, at least one laser control system and at least one optical acquisition and data processing unit. The optical acquisition unit determines positional data for the interconnected plastic products provided in the band. From the positional data a cutting pattern is calculated, which is transmitted to the laser control system. According to this cutting pattern, the position, intensity and focal point of the at least one laser is controlled by the laser control system, which comprises a focusing optic, a deflection means and a beam-forming means.
