The main technical parameters of cutting wheels include diameter, thickness, hardness, material and angle. These parameters directly affect the performance and use effect of cutting wheels.
Diameter: The diameter of the cutting wheel is the basic indicator to measure its size, usually in millimeters (mm). Large diameter cutting wheels are more stable when cutting and are suitable for cutting thick glass; while small diameter cutting wheels are relatively flexible and suitable for cutting complex shapes or thin glass.
Thickness: The thickness of the cutting wheel is also measured in millimeters. Thick cutting wheels are more durable and suitable for long-term and large-scale cutting work; while thin cutting wheels have finer cutting lines and can meet the requirements of high precision cutting.
Hardness: The hardness of the cutting wheel is its ability to resist wear, indentation and deformation. Cutting wheels with appropriate hardness can keep the cutting edge sharp and cut smoothly during cutting, improve cutting efficiency and the quality of glass products. If the hardness is too low, it is easy to wear and the cutting effect becomes worse; if the hardness is too high, it may become brittle and easy to break.
Material: Cutting wheels are usually made of carbide and diamond. Diamond cutting wheels are extremely hard and suitable for cutting hard glass, but they are more expensive; carbide cutting wheels are relatively cheap and can meet general glass cutting needs. Angle: The shape and angle of the cutting wheel blade will affect the contact between the wheel and the glass and the distribution of cutting force during cutting. The right angle can make cutting easier, the cutting line straighter and more uniform, and reduce the risk of glass breaking or cracking.
