Abstract: A method for producing carbide and diamond cutting tool inserts adapted to compensate for braze-induced warp is provided. In this method, the anticipated warpage of the insert from brazing is considered prior to cutting the insert from a PCD and carbide disk and the cutting path for the insert is adjusted to compensate. The adjusted cutting path creates an insert shape that, after warping as a result of the brazing process, will conform substantially to the originally intended insert or cutting tool shape. Also, a method of providing relief on the bottom surface of a brazeable insert is provided. Further, tools produceable by these methods are disclosed, such as a diamond edged rotary cutting tool with a substantially sinusoidal rake face and cutting edge.

Abstract: A square saw tooth having four cutting edges of the type which is rotatable about its axis on a saw disc to present a fresh cutting edge when the radially outermost edge wears out has carbide wear plates covering the high wear areas of its attack face and providing its cutting edges. A wear plate is provided at each corner of the attack face, and each wear plate has a flat rear surface for attachment to the tooth body and a front surface of a complex shape, having plateau surface areas at the corners, where the plates are thicker, and one or more cylindrically curved concave surfaces which recede from the plateau areas toward the interior of the attack face, so that the plate recedes in thickness away from the plateau area.

Abstract: A saw blade with cutting wings on the teeth. The blade has a blade body, teeth located on an outer edge of the blade body, and cutting wings extending from either side of each tooth on the blade body. Each tooth is angled in a direction opposite that of the adjacent teeth to eliminate block cutting characteristics and to enhance the serrating effect of the teeth. A first wing is longer than a second wing and contains a barb that enhances the serrating effect of the wing. Both wings are beveled so that the sharpest edge of the wings is located on the outer edge of the wings. The cutting wings pre-cut a width of the material and reduce the splintering and shredding effects of the blade on the material.

Additionally, the bore orientation is such that the outer ends of the inserts lag their inner ends in the direction of carrier rotation. The assembly provides improvements in strength, blade wear life and precision of cut.

Abstract: A kerfless slitter, capable of cutting various materials without generating chips or sawdust. The slitter includes a circular blade having a plurality of teeth spaced about its outer periphery and which contains a knife-edge centered along the mid plane of the blade in regard to its thickness. In practice, the blade is rotated at a peripheral speed that is equal to the linear speed of the work acted upon whereby each tooth is advanced along a cycloidal path of travel in reference to the work. Each tooth is arranged to enter the work ahead of the cutting line established by the teeth that have previously penetrated the work so that the cut is increased in length and in depth by means of a series of short slits.

Abstract: A cutter for cutting continuous stock materials into discrete lengths is disclosed. The cutting device includes a plurality of rotatable cutting tools or blades extending transversely across a cutting zone. The cutting tools are mounted in a common plane, are intermeshed, and are synchronously driven in opposite directions. The cutting zones of the intermeshed cutting tools overlap and thus the cutting device is capable of performing the cutting operation by movement in one direction through the material being cut. The cutting tools have opposed segments that carry cutting edges. In one form of tool, the cutting edges are spaced from the axis of rotation of the cutting tool by a distance that continuously increases in a direction opposite the direction of rotation of the cutting tool. This change in distance can be related to the speed of rotation of the cutting tools and the speed at which the cutting tools are advanced through the material being cut.

Abstract: A circular saw blade has block-like tooth tip inserts of hard metal, secured at circumferentially spaced intervals to the peripheral portion of a disc-like blade body having opposite flat side surfaces. The gullet in front of each insert, conventionally present in such a blade, is spanned in the circumferential direction, at least to a substantial extent, by a fixed thin wall, which can comprise a reduced thickness portion of the blade body, so that each gullet is thus defined by a sidewardly and radially outwardly opening cavity in a side surface of the blade, and the blade has a near-circular periphery. At the circumferentially rearward and radially inward portions of each cavity its edges are substantially bevelled to facilitate flow of cuttings out of the cavity.

Abstract: A circular saw is disclosed which employs unique tooth forms contributing to reduced noise. The saw in operation, because of the design of the tooth forms, reduces vibration of the saw plate caused by air turbulence as well as reduces air flow through the gullet of the saw blade. The overall result is a quieter saw. A narrow, shallow and generally square design gullet configuration contributes to noise reduction.
