New types of saws and better blade materials have made metal sawing a much more effective, versatile and economical process. In many cases, bandsaws are used as the primary means of shaping certain types of metal parts.
Once, sawing was considered a secondary machining process, and saws were used mostly for Cutting Tools bar stock in preparation for other machining operations.
Sawing is a process wherein a narrow slit is cut into the workpiece by a tool consisting of a series of narrowly spaced teeth, called a Granite Saw Blade. Sawing is used to separate work parts into two or more pieces, or to cut off an unwanted section of a part. These processes are often called cut-off operations and since many manufacturing projects require cut-off operations at some point in the production sequence, sawing is an important manufacturing process. Basically, sawing is a simple process: As the blade moves past the work, each tooth takes a cut. Depending on the thickness or diameter of the work, the number of teeth cutting at one time varies from two to ten or more. Saws may be of the continuous cutting (band or rotary) or reciprocating type.
