CNC Tool and Cutter Grinder Guide

In all metal processing, tool wear is very common, unless adopts laser system or other similar non-contact as cutting tool. Therefore, it is recognized that a CNC tool and cutter grinder is common in-plant equipment in the metalworking industry. For example, there are two main types of sawing machines in the metalworking industry, both of which require grinding of their saws. Band saws and circular saws are blade users. They need to grind their blades after a certain period of sawing. Unlike band saws, circular saws use circular tools to perform the sawing process. This is not to realize the cutting mechanism through the saw belt, but leads to other processing characteristics different from the band saw machine. In addition to sawing, tool systems for turning, milling and boring also require constant and regular grinding. Therefore, CNC tool and cutter grinder is indispensable for manufacturers in the entire industry and every factory, in order to provide the best convenience for business owners.

In the Case of Sawing Blades

In order to grind circular saw blades, circular saws are powered saws, which use toothed or abrasive disc sets or saw blades to cut different materials through a rotary motion spinning around an arbor. Similarly, hole saws and ring saws also use rotary motion, but are different from circular saws. To be precise, the circular saw machine can also be used loosely for the saw blade itself. Circular saws were invented at the end of the 18th century. Due to the growth of the agricultural fields in the states at that time, by the mid-19th century, circular saws were widely used in American sawmills. Technically speaking, no tool can maintain its sharpness unless it is a laser device or other non-contact device. However, after using the device, recalibration is still required. In other words, tool grinding is very much needed in all relevant work environments to support milling, turning, drilling, boring and sawing tools.


In the Case of Band Sawing Blade Grinding

Unlike circular saws, band saws are powered saws with long and sharp blades. The saw blade consists of a continuous toothed metal belt stretched between the wheels to cut the target material. Band saws are especially used in metal processing, woodworking, and wood processing, but can also be used to cut various other materials and workpieces. The advantages of the band saw include the uniform cutting movement due to the uniformly distributed tooth load, and the ability to cut irregular or curved shapes like a jig saw. The minimum radius of the curve is determined by the width of the saw band and the curve. Therefore, the saw blade must be ground in a uniform and precise manner to prevent premature damage to the band saw. If our professionals do not perform profile grinding, it will form problematic scratches and grooves. Excessive chip removal may make the tooth gullet hard, which is a problem that needs to be taken seriously.


Tool Grinding and Deburring

Deburring is similar to the process of CNC tool and cutter grinder. During metal processing, metal burrs are raised edges or small pieces of material that remains attached to the workpiece after the modification process. This is not ideal for the performance of the workpiece, so the mechanism of removing unwanted edges is considered very important. It is usually an undesirable material, and it is first removed using a deburring tool and then removed by a machine in a process called deburring. In fact, burrs are usually produced by machining, such as grinding, drilling, milling, engraving, or turning. It can exist as a thin steel wire on the edge of a freshly sharpened tool or as a raised part of the surface. This type of burr is usually formed when the hammer hits the surface, and deburring accounts for a large portion of the manufacturing cost. The invention of the deburring machine aims to deal with the problems caused by metal processing in advanced specifications. These problems may reduce the cost of manual deburring to the maximum range of working standards.
