Abstract
A catheter, guidewire or other cylindrical object cutting device having a base (10, 12), at least one circular saw blade (38) mounted on a spindle member (32), and a clamp (50) for manipulating the object (8) to be cut. The at least one circular saw blade is rotatably mounted on the spindle member. The spindle member is free to move vertically and horizontally with respect to the base to thereby control the location, size and depth of the cuts in a cylindrical objet disposed adjacent thereto. The clamp holds the object as well as rotate it to expose the entire circumference of the object to the saw blade. By releasing the clamp, a pinch roller (60) can advance the object before the clamp is re-engaged to securely hold the object for cutting. Sensors (102, 106, 108) are also provided to enable detection of wear of the saw blade so as to signal needed replacement or adjustment of the saw blade.
