ABSTRACT:
A roll (10) of metal lagging is loaded onto a loading rack (14). One end of lagging (8) is drawn upwardly and away from roll (10) by a feed drive roller (38) paired with a pressure roller (36). Before it reaches these rollers (36, 38), lagging (8) is pulled upwardly between a guide roller (28) and a pressure roller (26). The axis of roller (26) is slightly below the axis of roller (28). Lagging (8) is drawn between rollers (26, 28) and around roller (28) to drive roller (38). Drive roller (38) moves lagging (8) past a cutting station into engagement with two drive rollers (86, 88) of a curling mechanism (84). When a predetermined amount of lagging (8) has passed the cutting station, drive motor (104) stops and a movable blade (46) moves downwardly past a stationary blade (48) to cut lagging (8). A pressure foot (54 ) moves downwardly with blade (46) and in cooperation with a guide block (58) forms a bend (6) on lagging (8) just before it is cut. Curling mechanism (84) forms the cut piece of lagging (8) into a desired diameter. The rotation of the three drive rollers (38, 86, 88) is synchronized for smooth feeding of the lagging (8) from drive roller (38) into curling mechanism (84). Machine (2) may be operated entirely automatically to produce a desired quantity of pieces (4) of a desired length.
