Measurement and Analysis of Cutting Forces in Circular Sawing of Granite

摘要

To investigate the cutting forces during circular sawing of granite, measurements were made of the cutting forces and power in both down-cutting and up-cutting modes over a wide range of operating conditions. This paper presented the data of specific normal force components (F_n') and tangential force components (F't) acted on the segmented diamond sawblade, together with the data of the mean normal and tangential force components (f_n and f_t) acted on single active diamond grain.
