What is a metal circular saw machine?
A metal circular saw machine is a special mechanical equipment used to cut metal materials. It uses a high-speed rotating circular saw blade to cut metal accurately and quickly. It is widely used in machinery manufacturing, automobile industry, construction, aerospace and other fields, and is an indispensable and important tool in metal processing.
Working principle of metal circular saw machine:
The metal circular saw machine drives the saw blade to rotate at high speed through an electric motor, and uses the saw teeth of the saw blade to cut metal materials. During the cutting process, the friction and shear force generated when the saw blade contacts the metal separate the metal material. According to the different cutting methods, metal circular saw machines can be divided into the following two categories:
1. Cold cutting: cutting at room temperature without high temperature, suitable for occasions with high material performance requirements.
2. Hot cutting: by heating the saw blade or metal material, the cutting resistance is reduced, which is suitable for cutting high-hardness metals.
Structural composition of metal circular saw machine:
1. Saw blade: usually made of high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide, with high hardness and wear resistance.
2. Spindle: supports the saw blade and transmits power to ensure stable rotation of the saw blade.
3. Motor: Provides power source to drive the saw blade to rotate at high speed.
4. Feed mechanism: Controls the feed speed and direction of metal materials to ensure cutting accuracy.
5. Cooling system: Reduces cutting temperature through coolant to extend the life of the saw blade.
6. Control system: Includes electrical control and hydraulic control to achieve automated operation.
Classification of metal circular saw machines:
1. Manual metal circular saw machine:
(1) Features: Simple operation, suitable for small batch, low-precision cutting tasks.

Recommendations for purchasing metal circular saws:
1. Choose the model according to cutting requirements:
(1) Small batch, low precision → manual/semi-automatic models
(2) Large scale, high precision → fully automatic/CNC models
2. Pay attention to the quality of the saw blade: high-speed steel saw blades are suitable for conventional cutting, and carbide saw blades are suitable for high-hardness materials.
3. Matching cooling system: ensure cutting efficiency and saw blade life.
