2. INTRODUCTION
What is band saw machine?
A bandsaw (also written band saw) is
a power saw with a long, sharp blade
consisting of a continuous band of
toothed metal stretched between two
or more wheels to cut material. They
are used principally in woodworking,
metalworking, and lumbering, but
may cut a variety of materials.
4. How does the band saw machine work?
When the saw is set up for a cut, the
operator raises the saw, positions the
material to be cut underneath the blade,
and then turns on the saw. The blade
slowly descends into the material,
cutting it as the band blade moves. When
the cut is complete, a switch is tripped,
and the saw automatically turns off.
