Abstract:
A slide block for a saw band in a bandsaw machine, which is disposed as a pair at a distance to one another and between said pair a slot is present, through which the saw band is guided, and the frictional forces of the running saw band are absorbed on the edges of the slide blocks, whereby the slide block is made of a hard ceramic.
Abstract:
A cutting machine including an endless band knife, the band knife being guided in opposed directions in a revolution zone of the band knife forming a cutting zone, and including a first and a second deflecting device for deflecting and returning the band knife. The first and the second deflecting devices each deflect and return the band knife without a reverse bending cycle.
Abstract:
A miter saw having a base and an arm that pivots toward the base is disclosed. A blade is supported by the arm, and is designed to cut workpieces resting on the base when the arm and blade pivot downward. The saw includes a detection system configured to detect one or more dangerous conditions between a person and the blade, such as when a person accidentally touches the spinning blade, and the saw includes a reaction system to urge the arm and blade away from the base when the dangerous condition is detected.
Abstract:
A miter saw is disclosed having a base, a blade supported by the base, a detection system adapted to detect a dangerous condition between a person and the blade, and a reaction system associated with the detection system to cause a predetermined action to take place upon detection of the dangerous condition. The blade is rotatable, and moves into a cutting zone to cut a workpiece. The predetermined action may be to stop the blade from rotating, to create an impulse against movement of the blade into the cutting zone, or to cause the blade to move away from the cutting zone.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an automatic machining device for a high-speed rail pantograph carbon contact strip and a machining method therefor. The automatic machining device is sequentially provided with a milling position, a sawing position and a chamfering position, and comprises a rack, a band sawing machine, a workpiece milling device, a workpiece chamfering device, a CNC computer numerical control system and a pneumatic system. A carbon contact strip workpiece to be machined is arranged on the rack and is sequentially subjected to milling, sawing and chamfering machining; and a saw frame of the band sawing machine is also provided with a saw band upper guide servo rotating device and a saw band lower guide servo rotating device, and the saw band upper guide servo rotating device and the saw band lower guide servo rotating device can freely, synchronously and correspondingly rotate a band saw blade within a certain range. In the present invention, a carbon contact strip is machined by means of a sawing mode, the processes of sawing, milling and chamfering are integrated on one device, and the processes of milling, sawing and chamfering can be automatically completed after once clamping, thereby saving materials, and increasing the working efficiency.
Abstract:
Apparatus for longitudinally segmenting a cruciform shaped irradiated boiling water reactor control rod having four elongated blades radially extending from a central spline, into four flat panels. The apparatus employs a double bladed band saw with the band saw blades orthogonally oriented at two different elevations and having one side of each band saw blade crossing over the center of the spline of the control rod in between the control rod blades.
Abstract:
Woodworking machines are disclosed having movable cutting tools for cutting workpieces in a cutting region. The machines include a detection system adapted to detect one or more dangerous conditions between a person and the cutting tools, and a reaction system associated with the detection system. The reaction system is configured to retract the cutting tool at least partially away from the cutting region upon detection of a dangerous condition by the detection system.
Abstract:
A woodworking machine having one or more dangerous portions is disclosed. The machine also includes a safety system configured to detect accidental contact between a person and at least one of the dangerous portions by electrically coupling a signal to the person's body, and detecting if the signal becomes coupled to the dangerous portion.
Abstract:
Woodworking machines and safety methods for use with those machines are disclosed. The machines include a detection system adapted to detect one or more dangerous conditions between a person and the cutting tools, and a reaction system associated with the detection system. The reaction system is configured to retract the cutting tool at least partially away from the cutting region upon detection of a dangerous condition by the detection system.
