Abstract

The invention relates to a device (1) for slicing a strip around a reel (2), the device (1) comprising a shaft driven in rotation about its axis and intended to receive a reel (2) fitted around said axis, means (6) for retaining a free end of the strip on the reel (2), and means for relative axial movement between the reel (2) and the strip to perform the slicing operation as such. According to the invention, the retaining means (6) are rotationally fixed to the shaft and are axially and radially movable, to move from a position retaining the free end of the strip bearing on one end of a useful surface of the reel (2), to a neutral position radially and axially away from said useful surface of the reel (2).
