Product catalog summary
Band Length: The band length is determined by the specific cutting machine used. Further details can be found in the machine's operation instructions or the catalogue's rear section.
Band Width: For horizontal machines, the band width is specified by the manufacturer. Vertical machines allow more variation, with wider blades offering greater stability. The smallest radius for contour cuts limits the band width.
Cutting Edge Material: WIKUS provides four main cutting edge materials: Carbon steel, Bimetal, Carbide, and Diamond. The material to be cut dictates the choice of cutting edge material.
Tooth Pitch: WIKUS offers constant and variable tooth pitches. The contact length of the blade with the workpiece is crucial, with tables provided to show limit values for each type.
Tooth Shape: Various tooth shapes are optimized with cutting edge materials and band saw dimensions for efficiency.
Band Widths and Smallest Radius: A table is provided to show the relationship between band widths and the smallest radius that can be cut.
Cutting of Tubes and Profiles: A detailed table outlines the appropriate tooth pitch for cutting tubes and profiles based on outer diameter and wall thickness.
Types of Tooth Set: The product range includes various tooth sets, with specific products like ECODUR and FUTURA series not having a set.
