Party NTTM, army innovator Y. Bandurko, suggested a simple device for cutting steel wire rope. Steel is the base plate to which are welded crosswise arranged vertical edge guides. Between them with the edge of the knife upwards to fit the bar, he lowered the rope, and the top plate is inserted into the mandrel. Then all of this fixture Assembly is installed under the press, the mandrel takes its stress on itself and presses on the rope, cutting it on the blade of the knife block.
Through this “cleaver” is greatly facilitated and accelerated the once time-consuming operation. Now enough with only 40 to cut through the steel cable with a diameter of 24 mm.
“Cleaver” cable:
1 — pen, 2 — base, 3 — knife, 4 — wire, 5 — bar, 6 — guide rib.
