All Struers cut-off wheels are listed with their default values for force
limit, wheel thickness and speed. Also eight undefined wheels are
included for your own choice of cut-off wheels. (See also
configuration of cut-off wheels).
The speed of the cut-off wheel can be set between 300 and 5000
rpm in steps of 100 rpm. The default values for all Struers cut-off
wheels are already saved together with the wheel definitions.
Whenever a different cut-off wheel is selected the recommended
speed will automatically be inserted.
The feed speed can be set between 0.005 mm/s and 3.000 mm/s.
(See the section on Cutting Parameters in chapter 3. Consumables
for recommended settings).
The force limit is a protection for the cut-off wheel and/or the samples
to be cut. Depending on the thickness or strength of the cut-off
wheels the force limit can be set to three different levels, LOW,
MEDIUM and HIGH. The default values for all Struers cut-off wheels
are already saved together with the wheel definitions. Whenever a
different cut-off wheel is selected, the recommended force limit will
automatically be inserted.
