Sawing parameters of band saw

Sawing parameters of band saw

Answer:

Contour sawing: Please cut the cutting material according to your requirement, select the most suitable type of saw blade, and then select the width of the saw blade according to the minimum radian (radius) of the cutting material you want. The smaller the radian (radius), the narrower the width of the saw blade.
Sawing pressure and feed rate: the sawing pressure and feed rate are determined by the type of material and the width of the material. Stiffer materials and larger widths require greater pressure and feed rates; softer materials and smaller widths require smaller pressures and feed rates.
Sawing speed: the belt speed is determined by the type of material, the width of the material, and the pulling force of the saw band. Stiffer materials must be of lower saw band speed; smaller widths must be faster with the saw band.
Saw tension: the tension shall be checked first before sawing with a new saw blade. If necessary, tighten after a little sawing.Band saw guidance: the cutting accuracy depends on the setting of the guide device of the saw blade. The closer the device is, the higher the cutting accuracy is.Cooling and lubrication: cooling and lubrication are indispensable in most metal sawing processes. For cast iron, brass, and some non-metallic materials, such as plastics and graphite, they can be or need not be lubricated during processing.
