Imagine finding the perfect bandsaw blade. One that\u2019s capable of cutting through all types of material at a faster rate than any other blade on the market. Sounds nice, right? Unfortunately for everyone, it doesn\u2019t exist\u2026yet. So, until our engineers design this blade (we\u2019re sure it\u2019s only a matter of time), the best we can do is leave you with some advice for choosing the right blade for your business\u2019s operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Slicing blades are best for, well, slicing through material. They typically pair well with low to medium-density applications. If you\u2019re working with product that requires a clean finish, then a slicing blade is truly your best option as the blade will smoothly penetrate material without ripping, tearing, or wasting any of it unnecessarily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Knife edge blade<\/strong><\/mark><\/a> will always offer the cleanest cut out of any blade. However, if the smooth, sharpened edge of the Knife isn\u2019t aggressive enough, a Lame \u00e0 coquille Saint-Jacques<\/strong><\/mark><\/a> would be the sensible next choice. A favorite of foam fabricators, insulation manufacturers, packaging OEMs, and boneless meat processors, the Scallop blade is incredibly versatile. Its razor-sharp pitch makes it a great fit for a variety of applications, but those working with fibrous material may want to substitute it for a Wavy blade<\/strong><\/mark><\/a>, which doesn\u2019t have tips that pull at individual fibers, leaving you with a ragged cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your specific application calls for a slightly more aggressive blade, you\u2019ll likely want to use a toothed blade without set (AKA a cutting blade). Toothed blades like the C-Tooth<\/strong><\/mark><\/a>, V-Tooth<\/strong><\/mark><\/a>, and Razorback blades<\/strong><\/mark><\/a> provide more of a bite into the material being cut. However, while they are considered more aggressive than slicing blades, a toothed blade without set still doesn\u2019t create much dust. This makes these blades ideal for cutting low to medium firm\/dense foams such as polyurethane or polyethylene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wondering how many teeth per inch is best for your specific application? Here\u2019s a good rule of thumb: The larger the tooth, the more aggressive the cut, which allows for a faster cut. If product finish or the amount of product lost is a concern, a smaller tooth will usually give a cleaner cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to cutting metal, wood, or other similarly dense products, you\u2019ll need a saw blade like the Bi-Metal M42<\/strong><\/mark><\/a>, Flexback<\/strong><\/mark><\/a>, or Hardback blade<\/strong><\/mark><\/a>. These blades have teeth with set that carve or rip into material in order to help the blade penetrate more easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking for a lighter-duty saw blade that works well with firm\/dense foams, bone-in meats, lighter metals such as aluminum, or cardboard? Our Simcor\u00ae<\/strong><\/mark><\/a>, Simcut\u00ae Butcher<\/strong><\/mark><\/a>, and Honeycomb blades<\/strong><\/mark><\/a> are all thinner with slightly less set than Flexback or Hardback blades, potentially making them a great fit for such applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generally, the same theory of a larger tooth for a more aggressive\/faster cut still applies. However, be careful when choosing a metal or wood cutting bandsaw blade as too large of a tooth could cause the teeth to break off easily and too small of a tooth will not cut the product effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re feeling like that was a lot of technical info to take in all at once, you\u2019re probably not alone. When in doubt, please reach out to one of Simmons\u2019 Regional Sales Managers. Not only can they provide blade recommendations for your applications, but they can also help diagnose issues you have with your band saw machines that might be affecting your current blades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
