Title:
FRAME SAW FOR CUTTING GRANITE AND METHOD TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE OF FRAME SAW FOR CUTTING GRANITE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004052605
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A horizontal frame saw (10) is equipped with a plurality of generally parallel, spaced-apart blades (88) for cutting granite (12). Each of the blades (88) has a cutting edge with diamond cutting segments (90, 104) mounted thereon for engaging the granite (12) with a swinging motion for cutting of the granite (12), wherein the segments (90, 104) have optimized / controlled segment variables for uniform wearing of the segments along each blade (88) during cutting of granite (12). Segment variables include one or more of: spacing of segments (90, 104) along the length of the blade (88); diamond concentration in each segment (90, 104); diamond grade (as measured by compressive fracture strength) in each segment (90, 104); segment composition (bond, secondary abrasives); or segment dimensions.
