wherein, prior to a first application, at least one of the teeth has at least one cutter formed thereon.

A method for balancing disc blades comprising the steps of: determining the initial position of the center of mass of the disc blade to be balanced with respect to its main axis; calculating/determining the number, the position and/or the dimensions of one or more balancing holes eccentric with respect to said main axis and necessary for removing an amount of material sufficient to bring the center of mass of the disc blade at a distance from the main axis lower than a predetermined maximum limit value; and forming said balancing hole or holes on the central disc in an eccentric position with respect to said main axis.

A cutting disc for a machine for harvesting stem-like plants includes a number of elements which together can be attached or are attached to a bracket forming a circular ring with an outer cutting edge. At least one of the elements is attachable to the bracket in a first position, in which a first edge of the element forms the outer cutting edge, and in a second position, in which a second edge of the element forms the outer cutting edge. No matter whether the element is in the first of second position, a circular cutting edge is made up.

A harvesting knife has a base body, which is configured to be applied in a manner rotating in a machine around a drive rotational axis allocated to said base body, and has a plurality of teeth on its circumference wherein, prior to a first application, at least one of the teeth has at least one cutter formed thereon.

The invention relates to a disk-shaped cutting tool, to a radial cutting method for machining axially elongated workpieces, to a cutting device and to a use of a disk-shaped cutting tool. A disk-shaped cutting tool according to the invention has defined flexibility and a defined impact. In a radial cutting process according to the invention, lateral deflection of the axially stationary rotating tool brings the tool, by means of the at least one laterally applied grinding and polishing surface, into axial effective contact with the workpiece to be machined. In a cutting device according to the invention, the cutting tool can be moved only radially to machine the workpiece. A use according to the invention of a disk-shaped tool serves the purpose of specimen preparation and subsequent surface analysis on a workpiece cut to length.

A sawblade for a circular saw, including a round, disk-shaped core blade made from one or more parts, with a plurality of circumferentially distributed saw teeth being arranged at its external perimeter and with its center comprising a connection for fastening the sawblade at a driveshaft, and at least one side area of the core blade including open channels 7 for guiding liquids. A circular sawing machine having such a sawblade and a method for producing such a sawblade are also provided.

The invention proposes a tipped circular saw blade (10) comprising a saw body (11) with a peripheral circular region made of a first material, the peripheral circular region having a plurality of slots (12), and a plurality of tips (13) made of a second material, each tip (13) fixed to a respective slot (12) to form a saw tooth (14) defined between an anterior gullet (15) and a posterior gullet (16), each saw tooth (14) having a cutting edge (141). In accordance with the invention, each saw tooth (14) has a leading face (142) defined between the anterior gullet (15) and the cutting edge (141), the leading face (142) having a profile that includes a single curved surface formed by an R radius, the curved surface encompassing the first material and the second material. The invention further proposes a method of manufacturing a tipped circular saw blade (10), the method comprising a step of forming a saw body (11) with a peripheral circular region made of a first material, the peripheral circular region having a plurality of slots (12); a step of joining a plurality of prefabricated tips (13a), made of a second material, to the respective slots (12) of the peripheral region of the saw body (11), obtaining a preliminary tipped circular saw blade (10a); and a step of grinding the preliminary tipped circular saw blade (10a) to form a plurality of saw teeth (14), each saw tooth (14) defined between an anterior gullet (15) and a posterior gullet (16), and having a cutting edge (141) and a leading face (142) defined between the anterior gullet (15) and the cutting edge (141), the leading face (142) having a profile that includes a single curved surface formed by an R radius, the curved surface encompassing the first material and the second material.

A cutting tool with a plurality of cutting elements connected to a support structure wherein a portion of the support structure is configured to flex or bend based on the rotational frequency of the cutting tool. The rotational frequency of the cutting tool is a product of the design and composition of the tool.

A self-propelled cutter has a gear assembly to provide both downward and forward force on a material to be cut. A gear assembly includes a drive input gear that engages with a transfer gear and propulsion gear engaged with the transfer gear by a lever arm. The drive gear and transfer gear are coupled and fixed to the cutter body but the propulsion gear rotates about the transfer gear via the lever arm. This gear assembly enables the propulsion gear to move as required to provide both downward and forward force on a material to be cut, such as a cast. A self-propelled cutter may have a drive input that is coupled with a drive input device, such as a crank or an electric motor. A cutter may have a first gear assembly on a first side of the cutter body and a second gear assembly on a second side.
