Abstract: Diamond tools are currently being used by an increasing number of architects, miners and construction engineers because they are faster and easier to use than older, more traditional instruments like sledge hammers and pneumatic and hydraulic jacks. Bridge and highway surfaces are cut with diamond asphalt and concrete cutting machines to provide for quick, clean, and easy section removal and replacement. The entire cost is reduced since diamond tools take less time and manpower The experiment is carried out to validate the performance of diamond saw blades by taking into consideration characteristics such as normal force, tangential force, cutting speed, cut depth, and peripheral velocity. In present exploration work we are introductory phase of plan conclusion of a jewel device cutting edge with various segmental like 8,12,16,20 corn meal by utilizing Solid works programming we are planning the apparatus cutting edge after that we are imported in Ansys Software for Analysis reason. Computing the necessary qualities for examination and estimations of earthenware tiles likewise are some other stone molecule. Another power model of cutting is presented and inferred numerical demonstrating for chip thickness. Identical chip thickness to coarseness space proportion is gotten from the new power model another outspread opening like profile is presented. Fragmented sort jewel saw sharp edge with the measurement of 400 mm and different portion, for example, 8, 12, 16 and 20 are planned in Solid works effectively. An examination study between existing roundabout outspread space and cone like opening is done to decide deformity, stress dispersion, vibration and temperature conveyance.

One of the primary goals in the design of a diamond blade cutting system is to reduce the cutting force. By understanding the fundamentals of the kinematics of the sawing operation, these forces can be lowered and even optimized with respect to the machining parameters. In this work the material chipping geometries have been mathematically defined and derived through kinematic analysis. These geometries are bounded by four curves and depend on the parameters: depth of cut h, blade diameter D, transverse rate of the workpiece νT, peripheral speed of the saw blade νP, and grit spacing λ. From these chipping geometries, chip area and thickness relations have been obtained. A relation for the mean chip thickness to grit spacing ratio (tc/λ) has also been obtained as a function of the nondimensional machining parameter ratios, h/D and νT/νP. The effects of these parameters on tc were also investigated. It was found that increasing ω and D, reduces the chip thickness. Contrarily, increasing νT, λ, and h, increases the magnitude of the chip thickness. A review of older chipping models was performed, comparing well with the developed model. The results show an excellent agreement between the new model and the older ones. However, at moderately small to large h/D values the new model yields a more exact result. Thus, for h/D values greater than 0.08, it is recommended that the kinematic model be used to compute tc and other pertinent sawing parameters (i.e., grit force and grinding ratio) which are a function of tc.

The present study was undertaken to examine the feasibility of circular sawing of granite with a newly shaped diamond saw blade. Three slots were formed on each side of each segment of the saw blade. Side-slotted segments and traditional segments were compared under same operating parameters. Measurements were made of the horizontal and vertical force components and the consumed power in order to obtain the tangential and normal force components. The surfaces of worn blade segments were examined by a scanning electron microscope. The consumed powers, normal and tangential force components for the side-slotted segments were found to be lower than those of the traditional segments. The position of resultant forces for the side-slotted segments is a little further away from the bottom of the cutting zone than the traditional segments. SEM observations indicated that the wear of the side-slotted segments was similar to sawing with traditional segments.

Previous research into the cutting mechanics of bone sawing has been primarily approached from the perspective of orthogonal metal machining with a single edge cutting tool. This was a natural progression from the larger body of knowledge on the mechanics of metal cutting. However, there are significant differences between typical orthogonal metal cutting parameters and those encountered in bone sawing, such as anisotropic material behavior, depth of cut on the order of cutting edge radius, chip formation mechanism in the context of a saw blade kerf, non-orthogonal considerations of set saw blade teeth, and cutting speed to name a few. In the present study, an attempt is made to overcome these shortcomings by employing a unique sawing fixture, developed to establish cutting speeds equivalent to those of typical sagittal saws used in orthopaedic procedures. The apparatus was developed for research into bone sawing mechanics and is not intended to be a commercial sawing machine. The sawing fixture incorporates the cutting speed possible with lathe operations, as well as the linear cutting capabilities of a milling machine. Depths of cut are on the same order of magnitude as the cutting edge radius typical to saw blade teeth. Initial measurements of cutting and thrust force, obtained with this new experimental equipment, are compared to previous work.

To solve the problem of coal-rock damage during cutting coal and rock by diamond saw blade — the LS-DYNA diamond saw blade — coal and rock finite element model is established. According to the fracture mechanism of brittle materials, by studying a single diamond saw blade with different cutting speeds and revolution speeds along with double diamond saw blades with different spacing, cutting speeds and cutting speeds of coal-rock damage, axial force and force change, the numerical simulation resultant demonstrated the axial force, cutting force and rock damage decrease significantly with an increase in rotational speed. The force and damage increase with an increase in the cutting speed and a decrease in the distance of the diamond saw blade. The axial force linearly increases with rotational speed and cutting speed. The cutting force exponentially decreases with increasing rotational speed, and it increases with increasing feeding speed. The forces decrease linearly with the increasing distance of the diamond saw blades. The damage degree of rock increases as the distance and rotational speed increase, and it decreases as the cutting speed increases.

The ornamental rock sector in Galicia (NW Spain), in particular the granite extraction and processing sector, has undergone tremendous development in recent years as a direct consequence of the use of non-aggressive rock mass extraction methods and the progressive modernization and automation of the different processes for processing and finishing the slabs, as well as the improvement of in-plant logistics. Nevertheless, it has been ascertained that cutting parameters entered as setpoint values in the diamond circular saws, used for the subdivision of slabs of the different commercial granite varieties, do not fit clear technical criteria for the optimization of cutting efficiency, but are selected and pre-set based on the experience of the circular saw operator. In order to evaluate the validity of thus selected cutting parameters and to provide the sector with a more objective tool, the cutting performance of seven granite varieties from Galicia which have high sales was analysed. Thus, each available slab was subdivided using four different cutting settings resulting from modifying two of the parameters which most affect cutting efficiency: cutting speed (m/min) and cutting depth (mm). These parameters, in turn, have an influence on power consumption (kWh), diamond saw blade wear (mm) and average production (mm2/min). Thereby, an exhaustive data acquisition process was carried out in order to create a complete database with the representative information of the cutting of each of the seven tested varieties and determine the optimum configuration for cutting each material, based on the results of a graphical analysis of the mean of data and the analysis of the variance (ANOVA).

In this paper different contact conditions between tool, chip and work material are analyzed. Experimental and theoretical studies of contact load distribution on the artificial flank wear land of the cutter in free orthogonal turning of a disk made from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-2Mo-2Cr) are described. Investigations of cutting with various feed rate and cutting speed show that the greatest contact loads are observed immediately at the cutting edge. It is associated with the discontinuous character of titanium alloy chip and the elastic recovery of the transient (machined) surface at the moment when generated chip element is separated. The main influence of the variable chip thickness ratio of the discontinuous chip on the value of the greatest normal contact load near the cutting edge is shown that confirms the author’ hypothesis about a sag of the transient surface in the cutting edge region.Abbreviation and symbols: m/s – meter per second (cutting speed v); mm/r – millimeter per revolution (feed rate f); MPa – mega Pascal (specific contact load as stress σ or τ); hf– the width of the flank wear land of the cutting tool, flank wear land can be natural or artificial like in this paper [mm]; xh– distance from the cutting edge on the surface of the flank wear land [mm]; σh– normal specific contact load on the flank land [MPa]; τh– shear (tangential) specific contact load on the flank land [MPa]; HSS – high speed steel (material of cutting tool); Py r– radial component of cutting force on the rake face [N]; Pz– tangential component of cutting force [N]; γ – rake angle of the cutting tool [°]; α – clearance angle of the sharp cutting tool [°]; αh– clearance angle of the flank wear land [°]; b – width of a machined plate or disk [mm]; a – the thickness of the layer being removed (uncut chip thickness) [mm]; a1– chip thickness [mm]; Ka– chip thickness ratio (Ka= a1/a) as a degree of plastic deformation in chip formation zone; Ka2– variable chip thickness ratio, Ka2= a2/a1, where а2– distance from the rake face surface of the chip to the contact point of two neighbouring elements of the chip [mm]; Φ – shear angle [°]; hd– value, which determines the depth of deformation, for an ordinary task it is equal to the thickness of the machined part or the radius r of the machined disk [mm]; q – intensity of loading in the chip formation region [MPa].

Electron probe microanalysis of frozen hydrated kidneysThe goal of the method is to measure on the same preparation the chemical elemental content of the renal luminal tubular fluid and of the surrounding renal tubular cells. The following method has been developed. Rat kidneys are quenched in solid nitrogen. They are trimmed under liquid nitrogen and mounted in a copper holder using a conductive medium. Under liquid nitrogen, a flat surface is exposed by sawing with a diamond saw blade at constant speed and constant pressure using a custom-built cryosaw. Transfer into the electron probe column (Cameca, MBX) is made using a simple transfer device maintaining the sample under liquid nitrogen in an interlock chamber mounted on the electron probe column. After the liquid nitrogen is evaporated by creating a vacuum, the sample is pushed into the special stage of the instrument. The sample is maintained at close to liquid nitrogen temperature by circulation of liquid nitrogen in the special stage.

In this study, the slip-line field model developed for orthogonal machining with a worn cutting tool was experimentally investigated. Minimum and maximum values of five slip-line angles ( θ1, θ2, δ2, η and ψ) were calculated. The friction forces that were caused by flank wear land, chip up-curl radii and chip thicknesses were calculated by solving the model. It was specified that the friction force increased with increase in flank wear rate and uncut chip thickness and it decreased a little with increase in cutting speed and rake angle. The chip up-curl radius increased with increase in flank wear rate and it decreased with increase in uncut chip thickness. The chip thickness increased with increase in flank wear rate and uncut chip thickness. Besides, the chip thickness increased with increase in rake angle and it decreased with increase in cutting speed.

The effects of different cutting parameters, insert nose radius, cutting speed and feed rates on the surface quality of the stainless steel to be use in medical application. Stainless steel AISI 316 had been machined with three different nose radiuses (0.4 mm 0.8 mm, and 1.2mm), three different cutting speeds (100, 130, 170 m/min) and feed rates (0.1, 0.125, 0.16 mm/rev) while depth of cut keep constant at (0.4 mm). It is seen that the insert nose radius, feed rates, and cutting speed have different effect on the surface roughness. The minimum average surface roughness (0.225µm) has been measured using the nose radius insert (1.2 mm) at lowest feed rate (0.1 mm/rev). The highest surface roughness (1.838µm) has been measured with nose radius insert (0.4 mm) at highest feed rate (0.16 mm/rev). The analysis of ANOVA showed the cutting speed is not dominant in processing for the fine surface finish compared with feed rate and nose radius. Conclusion, surface roughness is decreasing with decreasing of the feed rate. High nose radius produce better surface finish than small nose radius because of the maximum uncut chip thickness decreases with increase of nose radius.

A new method based on electric discharge machining (EDM) was developed for cutting a silicon carbide (SiC) ingot. The EDM method is a very useful technique to cut hard materials like SiC. By cutting with the EDM method, kerf loss and roughness of sample are generally smaller than those obtained by cutting with a diamond saw. Moreover, the warpage is smaller than that by the diamond saw cutting, and the cutting speed can be 10 times faster than that of the diamond saw at the present time. We used wires of 50 mm and 100 mm diameters in the experiments, and the experimental results of the cutting speed and the kerf losses are presented. The kerf loss of the 50 mm wire is less than 100 mm, and the cutting speed is about 0.8 mm/min for the thickness of a 6 mm SiC ingot. If we can maintain the cutting speed, the slicing time of a 2 inches diameter ingot would be about seven hours.
