INTRODUCTION
Sawing is an important first operation in any shop subsequent machining
operation.
Metal & other materials are often cut using sawing m/c or hand saw.
Sawing is used because of its characteristic advantages like high speed
of cutting, low wastage of material & low power consumption.
The process can also be easily automated leading to considerable
saving in labour cost.
In sawing operation a large number of teeth move through the work
piece each successive tooth deepening the cut made by its
predecessor.
Feed may be given either to the saw or the job.
Both straight or curved profiles may be cut by controlling the direction
of feeding.
SAWING SPEEDS AND FEEDS
The cutting speed for sawing is determined by essentially the same
considerations as for any other machining operation.
For common metals speed may vary from 0.2 m/s for hard & tough
alloys to 15 m/s for soft materials.
Feed for sawing is the rate of movement of saw into work-piece at
right angles to the speed direction and it is denoted by mm/s or
mm/stroke.
Feed rate determines depth of cut taken by each individual tooth
and should be so adjusted that the force exerted by the work-piece
on the saw in the direction of the feed is as high as the blade would
permit without damage.
Manual sawing is considered inferior from feed point of view
because it is not possible to ensure a definite and uniform rate of
feeding in manual sawing.
