Per-cus′sion-cap Trim′ming-ma-chine.

For trimming the edges of cap-bodies after they have been formed by the dies.

The caps are placed in perforations in a plate and passed beneath a rotating cutter-disk to trim the edge. Fig 3636 shows a machine of this character, in which b is a bearing for shaft c, which carries the cutter i. e is a pulley round which the driving-belt passes, and l is a gage or lever to raise and depress the cutter-shaft, so that it may operate on the caps as they are brought beneath the cutter.
