A method including providing a ceramic log (300) with a first end and an opposing second end; providing one or more cutting devices (100) comprised of a dual bladed cutting member (200); and removing material by cutting at least the first end with the dual bladed cutting member (200), wherein a first blade (210) of the dual bladed cutting member (200) provides a finished surface and a second blade (220) removes a percentage of scrap above the finished surface. An apparatus (100) for cutting a ceramic log (300).

A sawmill carriage includes a frame having a handle, translation structures connected to the frame towards lateral sides thereof, a sawmill head, and a pair of transportation wheels rotatably connected to the frame towards a longitudinal end thereof. The translation structures are mountable on rails of a log support structure that can support a log. The rails extend in a longitudinal direction and enable travel of the sawmill carriage in the longitudinal direction when the sawmill carriage is mounted thereon. The sawmill head has a saw blade, a portion of which is positionable to cut the log positioned on the log support structure when the sawmill carriage is mounted on the rails, and the sawmill carriage travels in the longitudinal direction. The handle is positioned to enable tilting and/or transportation of the sawmill carriage. A kit and method of using the sawmill carriage are also provided.

Disclosed herein are a treatment apparatus and method for a waste steam generator, and an installation method of a treatment apparatus for a waste steam generator. The treatment apparatus includes a cutting part for cutting a body of a waste steam generator, a driving part for driving the cutting part, and a support frame for supporting the cutting part and the driving part, wherein the support frame is coupled to an outer peripheral surface of the body of the waste steam generator in a divided state, and the cutting part is driven and cuts the body in a state in which the support frame is coupled to the outer peripheral surface of the body. Consequently, since the treatment apparatus is easily moved and installed, an installation time of the treatment apparatus may be shortened and an exposure time of a worker can be reduced.

A workpiece clamping device for a machine tool is provided, which has a base, first and second clamping jaws between which a workpiece is clampable, a drive, and an actuating element which is displaceable relative to the base and which is coupled to the first clamping jaw. A movement of the actuating element is brought about by the drive and the actuating element brings about a displacement of the first clamping jaw. A transmitter is arranged on the actuating element and is displaceable together with the actuating element and is displaceable relative to the actuating element. A first stop and a spaced-apart second stop are provided, between which stops the transmitter is displaceable together with the actuating element. When the transmitter abuts against the first or second stop, the transmitter is displaceable relative to the actuating element. A sensor is provided for detecting one or more positions of the transmitter.

In order to improve a saw device with a feed axis for a workpiece to be sawed, with a first saw unit to saw the workpiece in a first sawing plane extending transversely to the feed axis and with a second saw unit to saw the workpiece in a second sawing plane extending transversely to the feed axis, with a central device region arranged between the sawing planes, with a front device region arranged in front of the first sawing plane, viewed in a feed direction, and with a rear device region arranged behind the second sawing plane, viewed in the feed direction, in such a way that as high a cutting efficiency as possible can be achieved, it is proposed that the saw device comprises at least two transport mechanisms arranged in different device regions to transport different workpiece portions along the feed axis.

A bandsaw assembly for cutting large diameter workpieces such as turbine rotors, heat exchangers or shafts at a plant or factory and a method of using the same is disclosed. The assembly includes a frame; ground-engaging wheels or a track provided on the frame; a plurality of spaced apart towers extending vertically upwardly from the frame; a rotatable drive wheel mounted on each tower, said drive wheel being horizontally oriented and presenting a vertically oriented circumferential surface; a motor operatively engaged with one or more of the drive wheels; and a bandsaw blade passing around the wheels and being in contact with the circumferential surfaces thereof; said blade being selectively driven by the drive wheels. The towers are variable in length to raise or lower the blade. The assembly is reduced in width for transportation or storage and increased in width for operation.

A double-saw band saw machine includes a base, a first band saw unit, a second band saw unit, a feeding unit and a clamp unit. When an object to be sawn is located in a sawing area between the first and second band saw units, the first and second motors control the first and second frames to move toward each other along the first axial direction, so that the first and second band saw blades can be used to cut the object to be sawn simultaneously. Hence, the sawing efficiency of the double-saw band saw machine is improved, and the replacement interval for the first and second band saw blades is extended.
