1. The saw blade milling cutter rotates continuously during milling, so the productivity is high and a higher milling speed is allowed. During continuous cutting milling, each tooth is cutting continuously, and the milling force fluctuates greatly, so vibration is inevitable. Vibration is most serious when the vibration frequency is the same as or multiples of the natural frequency of the machine tool. The saw blade milling cutter has many teeth and a large total length of the cutting edge, which is very helpful for improving the durability and productivity of the tool, and has many advantages.

2. The saw blade milling cutter is also a commonly used tool in processing. The direct difference between it and the cylindrical milling cutter is that the cylindrical milling cutter must be worn on the tool bar for use, and the saw blade milling cutter can be used by directly inserting it into the spindle taper hole. The saw blade milling cutter is mainly used for processing grooves and step surfaces. In processing, the use range and use requirements of high-speed steel saw blade milling cutters are relatively wide, and there will not be too much error in the case of poor cutting conditions. Although the carbide saw blade milling cutter has good wear resistance during high-speed cutting, its use range is not as wide as that of the high-speed steel saw blade milling cutter.

3 In actual machining production, saw blade milling cutters should be selected according to the materials and processing volume. Correctly selecting the right tool will be of great help in saving processing time and improving processing efficiency.

4 Daily operation specifications of saw blade milling cutters:

4.1. After the high-speed steel saw blade milling cutter is installed, a trial cut should be performed first to ensure that the new saw blade has a good coordination with the equipment, which will promote the cutting quality and service life of the saw blade and the equipment. Please be sure to slow down the saw blade feed speed before the formal cutting process, otherwise it will easily cause damage to the saw blade if it is sawed normally at the beginning.

4.2. Regarding the adjustment of reducing the feed rate, it is very necessary for special materials, such as stainless steel and other difficult-to-cut and high-toughness materials, the feed rate should be reduced; this helps to extend the service life of the high-speed steel saw blade. It is also related to the cross-section of the material. For materials with a smaller diameter, corresponding adjustments can be made according to actual conditions.

4.3. If the same material is cut and the feed speed is increased, please be sure to select coarse teeth; the saw blade is a consumable, and the cutting angle and tooth pitch are very important. It needs to be ground when necessary to maximize the benefits of the saw blade. For specific circumstances, please refer to “How to Determine Whether Carbide Saw Blades Need to Be Grinded”

4.4. In daily work, the saw blade milling cutter must observe the iron filings generated by the high-speed steel saw blade during sawing, which can determine some of the saw blade’s conditions: If the sawing sawdust is relatively fine or particularly fine, and reaches powder, it can be determined that the current cutting pressure is too small and should be adjusted in time.
