(57) The object of the present invention is a cutting device associable to a production
device for producing caps of synthetic material. The production device produces a
cord of cylindrical elements, which will form the caps, connected by a tang. The cutting
device comprises cutting means suitable for cutting said tang. Said cutting means
comprise a rotating blade (22), mounted on a cutting drum (24). Moreover, there are
provided advance means, continuous or intermittent, for advancing the cord and moving
the tang to a position suitable for being cut. In such position, the solid element
to be cut is stationary and the blade (22) cuts the tang, separating the solid element
from the cord and forming a semi-finished cap.
