Analysis of Energy Consumption Efficiency in Diamond Circular Sawing

Abstract:

. Experiments of sawing granite with diamond circular blades were carried out to study the energy efficiency in circular sawing. Energy consumed by machine spindle is classified into energy used without cutting and energy used with cutting. The energy used without cutting almost increases with the improvement of peripheral speed of blade. The energy consumption coefficient, the ratio of energy used with cutting to total energy consumed by spindle, increases with the increase of material removed rate, which reveals that higher material removed rate is favor for improving energy utilization. A fixed trend of energy consumption coefficient versus material removal rate was found and it might be useful for selecting cutting parameters for low energy sawing.
