摘要

A device for cutting gobs of molten glass coming out of a feeder of a glassware production machine, of the type having straight moving blades (12,13), comprising means for driving movement of the two blade carrying carriages (8,9) including two linear electric motors independent from each other and synchronized with each other, which are controlled so as to provide simultaneous movements of the two blade carrying carriages (8,9) towards and away from each other, symmetrically with respect to a plane (X) containing the axes along which the glass gobs fall. <IMAGE>
