Saw Grinding and Resharpening
Production and Sharpening of Circular and Band Saw Blades
Saws are an integral part of many industries, when a blade dulls or is otherwise damaged it is generally more economical to sharpen the sawblade or replace the damaged teeth than to purchase a new blade.
Saw sharpening was once the realm of the skilled artisan, but today it’s a precise science. Hard saw teeth must be exactingly ground into the desired shapes, repeatedly and unerringly by saw grinding machines and technicians. It’s a tough job, and Mirka® Cafro superabrasive wheels are up to it.
Whether for the topping and facing of circular saw blades, the profiling of band saw blades, or for side grinding operations, Mirka® Cafro wheels are the right choice for steel, stellite, and tungsten carbide grinding saw grinding and sharpening. Continue on to find out more about our products and solutions.
Circular Saws
Facing
The facing of circular saw teeth requires a superabrasive wheel capable of grinding precisely between saw teeth while maintaining stability and holding its profile. It takes a specialized wheel for specialized machines, and Mirka® Cafro range of stocked wheels and standard shapes are up to the task.
Topping
The top grinding of circular saw blades requires a free-cutting superabrasive wheel capable of efficiently and repeatedly grinding and forming the cutting angle of tungsten carbide saw teeth. Mirka® Cafro line of stocked and standard-sized wheels are capable of matching the needs of your specific machine to create an optimal saw tooth topping operation.
Side Grinding
Side grinding is a critical operation for creating a smooth cutting circular saw after the facing and topping operations. The superabrasive wheel must be free cutting and leave a precise surface. Mirka® Cafro portfolio includes a variety of shapes and bonds that are ideal for your specific side grinding machine.
Band Saws
Profile Grinding
Profile grinding is a key operation in the sharpening of bandsaw blades, as it restores and reshapes the specific profile of the tooth and gullet to a chosen form. A superabrasive wheel used for this operation needs to be precisely shaped to produce the chosen profile and be able to maintain the profile without breaking down. Mirka offers a range of standard wheels that can be profiled as needed to produce your specific tooth geometry.
Side Grinding
Side grinding is a critical operation for creating a smooth-cutting band saw after the profiling operation. The superabrasive wheel must be free cutting and leave a precise surface. Mirka´s portfolio includes a variety of shapes and bonds that are ideal for your specific side grinding machine.
