ABSTRACT:
An automatic shade cutter for cutting stock width shades to a particular width includes a clamping system for securing the shade in a selected cutting position on a longitudinal axis and a measuring scale positioned for use in selecting the desired width. The apparatus includes a cutting head rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the shade having a knife movable into and out of cutting engagement on a plane normal to the axis of the shade. The automatic shade cutter is designed for use in retail stores for operation by retail customers. A customer first selects a stock shade and then inserts the shade into a measured cutting position in the machine. Thereafter, an automatic cut-off operation is initiated by merely pushing a button and when the cutting operation is completed, the shade is removed and an end plug or pivot is inserted in the freshly cut end and a hem slat of appropriate length is inserted into the hem along the lower edge of the shade.
