FEM analysis of saw blade
Abstract
Article deals with identification of the critical points of the saw blade designed for wood cutting which teeth are made from stellite material. Cutting parameters and shape of blade were under investigation. FEM analysed the influence of cutting speed, size of cutting forces, clamping and geometry of saw blade. Factors that significantly affect the strength of the saw blade have been identified and can contribute to identification of critical conditions leading to the destruction of the saw blade. The results can also be applied when sawing wood with a band saw.
