Influence of Radial Slots on the Vibration Characteristics of Circular Saw Blade

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to improve thin circular saw blade’s cutting stability, it’s nonlinear dynamic incremental equilibrium equation was obtained according to nonlinear vibration theory and D’Alembert principle. It could be concluded from the above equation that cutting several radial slots on the circumference of the saw blade will cause significant change of dynamic characteristics of the saw blade. This thesis, employing the finite element method and matrix perturbation principle, calculated and studied respectively the effect of number, length and width of the radial slots on natural frequencies of the saw blade. Results show that number and length have distinct influence on natural frequencies but hardly does width have. So proper choice of number, length and width of the radial slots can improve effectively the dynamic characteristics of the saw blade.
