MUMBAI, India, July 7 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202441103685 A) filed by J. K. Fenner India Limited on December 27, 2024, for Semi –automated Braided Sleeve Cutting Machine.

Inventors include M. Pandiyarajan; S. Vijayabalaji; and N. Ajay Kumar.

The application for the patent was published on July 03, 2026, under issue no. 27/2026.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a semi-automated machine for precision cutting and sealing of nylon braided sleeves. It features a Cutter Unit (100) with a heated knife (102) at approximately 410°C for simultaneous cutting and edge sealing, preventing sleeve fraying. A servo-driven Pulling Roller (106) removes each cut segment smoothly from the cutting area. Linear Motion Blocks (LM Blocks) (108) provide guided stability, enhancing alignment and precision during feeding and cutting. The Feeding Unit with Suspension Mechanism (118) and Deadweight Clamp maintains sleeve tension and alignment. An integrated Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Display (130) and Electric Control Panel (128) allow operators to set parameters, with a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) managing the machine’s synchronized functions, including temperature, motor torque, and safety. This design ensures consistent, efficient, and reliable operation, offering enhanced accuracy and durability for sleeve processing. Fig. 5 will be the reference
