Breaking in a Band Saw Blade
Sharp cutting edges with extremely small edge radii are required for high cutting capacity. To
achieve the optimal tool life we recommend breaking-in the blade accordingly. The correct
cutting speed is determined by the material being cut and its dimensions. It is very important
that the new blade is first used with only 50% of the determined feed rate. This will avoid micro-
breakages of the blade because of too large chip thicknesses. New band saw blades may tend
toward vibrations and vibration sounds. In this case a slight reduction of the cutting speed is
helpful. With small workpiece dimensions approximately 300cm² of the material should be cut
for breaking-in. If large work piece dimensions are to be cut we recommend a breaking-in period
of about 15 minutes. After breaking-in you may slowly increase the feed rate up to the
determined value.
Metal Chip Indicators
Chips are the best indicator of correct material feed force. Monitor chip information and adjust
feed accordingly.
•
Thin or Powdered Chips
– increase feed rate or reduce saw speed
•
Burned Chips
– reduce feed rate and / or saw speed
•
Curly Silvery and Warm Chips
– optimum feed rate and saw speed
