The other lead module (40) has several superposed lead cutting tools (42) located about a shaft (41A) with axis (41). Each stack of tools on a module are arranged on a support pivoting about an axis parallel to the module axis. Each cutting tool has an external rotating cage and an independent internal cutting part (34) inside the cage rotated by a motor (71). Each lead tool has the shape of a rotating toothed disc.
