Band Saw Information Conclusion
Correct tooth design and feed speeds require both calculation
and experimental work.
The main problem is to consider factors such as raw material
supply, market requirements, maintenance work in the mill etc. Sometimes wood
species classified as soft according to specific gravity behave as hardwood with
regard to texture, content of silica compounds etc. However, some of the general
rules presented may help to start trial-and-error activities from a reasonable
level.
Example of calculated sawing data in a soft-wood mill showing
maximum feed speed and used gullet at a fixed feed speed for different diameter
classes.
