Band Saw Blade Grinder and Teeth Setter
Grinding Wheel: The core component of the machine. It is made of abrasive material (often diamond, CBN – cubic boron nitride, or silicon carbide) designed to grind steel teeth. The type of grinding wheel used will depend on the material the teeth are made of (e.g., high-speed steel or carbide-tipped).
Blade Feeding Mechanism: In automatic grinders, the band saw blade is fed into the grinder using a motorized feed system. This system moves the blade steadily, ensuring each tooth is sharpened consistently and at the correct angle.
Tooth Pitch and Spacing: The grinder must be set to accommodate the tooth pitch (distance between teeth) and tooth spacing. Different saw blades may have different tooth configurations depending on their intended use (e.g., fine teeth for cutting softwood vs. coarse teeth for cutting hardwood).

Features
- The grinder allows for adjustment of the grinding angle, enabling operators to set the correct angle for each tooth to ensure uniform sharpening.
- The angle can be adjusted to suit the specific profile and type of teeth, ranging from 10° to 30°, depending on the blade’s design and intended use.
- The grinder allows for adjustable depth of cut, enabling the operator to control how much material is removed from the teeth during each grinding pass.
- The depth adjustment helps prevent over-grinding or under-grinding the teeth, ensuring proper sharpness without damaging the blade.
