What materials can a circular saw cut?

Circular saw machine is a kind of equipment widely used in the field of industry and mechanical processing, mainly used for cutting various metal materials. Its high efficiency and precision make it an important tool for many manufacturing companies. This article will introduce in detail the types of materials that circular saw machine can cut and their applications.

1. Circular saw machine

Circular saw machine uses circular saw blades to cut materials, usually driven by electric motors, with the characteristics of high efficiency, precision and easy operation. According to different materials and needs, different types of saw blades can be selected, such as high-speed steel (HSS), carbide (TCT) and diamond saw blades.

2. Materials that circular saw machine can cut

Steel

Steel is one of the most common cutting materials for circular saw machines, including carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, etc. Different types of steel require different saw blades and cutting parameters.

Carbon steel: Carbon steel is one of the most commonly used steels with good plasticity and toughness. Carbon steel can be easily cut using high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide (TCT) saw blades.

Stainless steel: Stainless steel has high hardness and corrosion resistance. When cutting, special stainless steel saw blades need to be used, and attention should be paid to cooling to prevent overheating.

Alloy steel: Alloy steel has higher strength and wear resistance due to the presence of multiple metal elements. When cutting alloy steel, you need to use a carbide (TCT) saw blade and adjust the cutting speed and feed rate.

Aluminum and aluminum alloys

Aluminum and aluminum alloys are widely used in aviation, automobiles, and construction due to their lightweight, corrosion resistance, and good electrical conductivity. Circular saws can easily cut these materials.

Pure aluminum: Pure aluminum is soft and easy to cut, but be careful to prevent chips from sticking to the saw blade.

Aluminum alloy: Aluminum alloys have a high hardness and need to use carbide (TCT) saw blades and adjust the cutting speed and feed rate appropriately.

Copper and copper alloys

Copper and copper alloys are widely used in electrical, electronic, and construction fields due to their excellent electrical and thermal conductivity. Circular saws are also suitable for cutting these materials.

Pure copper: Pure copper is soft and easy to cut, but be careful to prevent chips from sticking to the saw blade.

Brass: Brass is a copper-zinc alloy with high strength and corrosion resistance. When cutting brass, you need to use a carbide (TCT) saw blade and adjust the cutting speed and feed rate appropriately.

Bronze: Bronze is a copper-tin alloy with high strength and wear resistance. When cutting bronze, you need to use a carbide (TCT) saw blade and adjust the cutting speed and feed rate appropriately.

Titanium and titanium alloys

Titanium and titanium alloys are widely used in aerospace, medical equipment, and chemical industries due to their high strength, low density, and excellent corrosion resistance. Circular saws can also cut these materials, but you need to pay attention to choosing the right saw blade and cutting parameters.

Titanium: Titanium has high strength and low density, but poor thermal conductivity. When cutting titanium, you need to use a carbide (TCT) saw blade, appropriately reduce the cutting speed, and increase the use of coolant.

Titanium alloy: Titanium alloy has higher strength, requires a higher-performance saw blade and adjusts the cutting speed and feed rate.

Other metal materials

In addition to the common metal materials mentioned above, circular saws can also cut some other metal materials, such as nickel-based alloys, cobalt-based alloys, lead, zinc, etc. The cutting of these materials requires the selection of appropriate saw blades and cutting parameters according to their physical properties.

3. How to choose a suitable saw blade

Choosing the right saw blade is crucial to the cutting effect of the circular saw machine. Here are some suggestions for choosing saw blades:

Choose according to the material: Different materials require different types of saw blades. For example, high-speed steel (HSS) saw blades can be selected for cutting carbon steel, while special stainless steel saw blades are required for cutting stainless steel.

Choose according to thickness: Cutting materials of different thicknesses requires the selection of saw blades with different numbers of teeth and tooth types. Generally speaking, fine-tooth saw blades can be selected for cutting thin materials, while coarse-tooth saw blades are required for cutting thick materials.

Choose according to hardness: Materials with higher hardness require more wear-resistant saw blades, such as carbide (TCT) saw blades or diamond saw blades.

Choose according to cutting speed: Different saw blades are suitable for different cutting speeds. High-speed cutting requires the use of saw blades that can withstand high rotation speeds, while ordinary saw blades can be used for low-speed cutting.

The circular saw machine is an efficient and precise cutting equipment suitable for cutting various metal materials, including steel, aluminum, and aluminum alloys, copper and copper alloys, titanium and titanium alloys, etc. Choosing the right saw blade and cutting parameters can ensure the cutting effect and equipment life.
