Fundamentals of cutting conditions setting
Setting of cutting rate 1. Select a blade that meets the cutting requirements from ”Blade type selection guide".
Cutting rate means the sectional area (cm2) that is cut per minute, and is expressed with the unit of [cm2/min]. 2. Select a tooth pitch that meets the dimensions of the material to be cut from ”Blade pitch selection guide”.
To obtain the target cutting rate, calculate the cutting time that is expressed by the following expression and adjust the 3. Set the blade speed referring to the chart below.
cutting speed. 4. Referring to the cutting rate given in the chart below, adjust the cutting speed so that the cutting time calculated
Cutting time(minute) = Sectional area of material2 to be cut (cm ) as described in the page on the left can be obtained

Cutting rate (cm /min) Note: lf the blade is a new one, perform break-in cutting. (See separate sheet for break-in cutting.)

A simple method for calculation of sectional area is as follows:


H-Beam Tube Solid material
Sectional area of rectangular material = Width (cm) x Height (cm) Material size
Sectional area of round material = Diameter (cm) x Diameter (cm) x 0.8 (mm)
9-bundled 9-bundled
* In case of cluster cutting, multiply the sectional area of one piece by the number of clustered pieces

Note 1: The above chart shows average data in the general market collected at random without consideration of blade type or band saw machine type.
Note 2: Cutting conditions vary greatly depending on the blade type, band saw machine type, shape and heat treatment of the material to be cut and required cutting specification (crooked cut, cut face roughness, blade life, etc.).
Note 3: Material grade codes included in the above chart are from standards of three countries. However, this chart does not constitute a standard cross-referancechart.
