Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9505928A1] A cushioning conversion machine (20), which converts stock material (11) into cut sections (P) of dunnage, includes a cutting/aligning assembly (56). The cutting/aligning assembly (56) comprises a moving blade unit (73) which is mounted on the frame (36) in such a manner that it travels between a rest position and a cutting position whereat it cuts a dunnage strip (5) (which is emerging from a dunnage outlet opening (48)) into a cut section. The cutting/aligning assembly (56) also includes an automatic alignment device (80) which automatically aligns the cut section with the dunnage outlet opening (48) when the blade unit (73) is moved from the cutting position to the rest position. The automatic alignment device (80) is unattached to the moving blade member (72) but travels therewith during jamfree operation of the cushioning conversion machine.
