SEPARATION DEVICE FOR SEPARATING PORTIONS OF A MATERIAL WEB, LAMINATING MACHINE COMPRISING A SEPARATION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SEPARATING AT LEAST ONE PORTION OF A MATERIAL WEB
The invention relates to a separation device (400) for separating portions (04) of a material web (02), the separation device (400) having at least one front clamping device (406), with at least one front clamping point (401), and at least one rear clamping device (404), with at least one rear clamping point (402), and at least one first stretching element (403). The separation device (400) can be switched between at least one traversing mode and at least one separation mode by the movement of at least the at least one first stretching element (403) between at least one first traversing position and at least one first separation position. A transport line is the shortest connection between the at least one front clamping point (401) and the at least one rear clamping point (402), said connection lying completely on a vertical reference plane and traversing or running at a tangent to any component of the separation device (400) on the respective same side as a transport path provided for the material web (02)
