There is provided a cutting accessory for a power tool comprising a body bearing a cutting surface, wherein the body comprises a plurality of spaced apart regions of reduced thickness within the cutting surface to create at least one interrupted cutting surface overlying a second cutting surface. Abrasive cutting material is affixed to the cutting surface. The regions of reduced thickness are equispaced along the cutting surface. The body can be substantially tubular or a linear edge blade.

Sawing tool forms a surface structure on a road surface, has a shaft and number of diamond saw blades, each diamond saw blade has disc-shaped core with hole for placing on shaft. A segment is on outer circumference of core, and saw blades are arranged on shaft by disc-shaped core. Segments of adjacent diamond saw blades are in surface contact on longitudinal side, each segment formed from two layers adjoining one another in axial direction and extending in radial and axial direction. Axially adjoining layers of segment each have different wear resistances and wear resistance of layers in axial direction alternates over axially entire segment, so a furrow is formed by two layers adjoining one another, in order to set a grip and a noise level of the road surface. Axially adjoining layers of adjacent segments have different wear resistances forming an alternating layer structure over entire sawing tool.

A cutting tool (1) for producing a trench (2) in the ground (3) for laying cables (4), comprises a carrier device (5) which has a hub region (6) for connecting the cutting tool (1) to a rotary drive (7) and a peripheral region (8), wherein, arranged in the peripheral region (8) of the carrier device (5) are cutting segments (9) spaced from each other in an axial direction (10), wherein the carrier device (5) is in one piece and has a peripheral surface (11) at which are arranged raised portions (12, 13) which project from the peripheral surface (11) in a radial direction (14) and on which the cutting segments (9) are arranged.

An automated plant (10) for cutting and operating flat slabs made from ceramic or the like for typically but not exclusively manufacturing slabs intended for use as coating elements at both civil and industrial levels and for both indoor and outdoor environments, comprising a first macro-area (12) defining an area suitable for storing products consisting of semi-finished slabs or mother-slabs, a second macro-area (14) defining an area for storing auxiliary packing materials or consumable materials for operations or processes on said slabs, a third macro-area (16) defining a production area for processing, packaging, and packing daughter-slabs or sub-formats of slabs obtained from mother-slabs, a fourth macro-area (18) defining a finished product area or store for letting the products coming from the third macro-area (16) pass through/temporarily accumulate, said plant also comprising automatic handling means for slaving and handling materials and semi-finished and finished products between said macro-areas and internally thereto, and a central control unit for programming, managing, and controlling the operation of said macro-areas and the interaction therebetween.

Tool cores may have removable sections, which may be removable without damaging, cutting or severing attachment configurations for the removable sections. The removable sections may be handled simultaneously. Moving parts used to facilitate removal of the removable sections may be secured in a pre-loaded configuration.

A diamond cutting tool (200; 200) for enabling a fast cutting start may include a rotatable main body (210) and a cutting portion (220). The rotatable main body may include a substantially circular periphery. The cutting portion may include an interlocking support assembly (280) and a plurality of notched cutters (270). The notched cutters may be disposed around the circular periphery extending outwardly from the main body. The notched cutters (270) may be formed of a first diamond-metal matrix. The interlocking support assembly (280) may be provided radially outwardly of the notched cutters and may include a softer diamond-metal matrix and/or a different diamond concentration therein than the first diamond-metal matrix. The interlocking support assembly may include a reinforcement portion (284) disposed between the notched cutters (270) and a top section (282) covering radially distal portions of the notched cutters.

This process for manufacturing a closed loop of cutting wire comprises manufacturing a cutting wire comprising a central core extending continuously between two free ends. The central core having a tensile strength higher than 1400 MPa. The process includes welding the two free ends together to form the closed loop of cutting wire, in which: the manufacture of the cutting wire comprises making the central core from a material that is solid-state weldable. The welding is a solid-state welding operation comprising crushing, at a temperature below the melting point of the material of the central core, one of the free ends against the other of its free ends until the two ends have interpenetrated and formed a single uniform body of material.

A machining tool (1) includes a band-shaped tooth supporting body (2) and a plurality of teeth (3) each having a tooth tip (4) being covered with cutting particles (5) to form a plurality of geometrically undefined cutting portions. The tooth tip (4) is furthermore covered with buffer particles (6) of a different material than the cutting particles (5). The buffer particles (6) are located between the cutting particles (5).

A machining tool (1) includes a tooth (3) having a tooth tip (4) being covered with cutting particles (5) to form a plurality of geometrically undefined cutting portions. The tooth tip (4) is designed to be asymmetrical. The machining tool (1) thus is a 2-in-1 machining tool including differently designed sides of the tooth tips (4) which are suitable for efficiently machining different materials.

A segment for an abrasive article is disclosed. The segment can include a segment body that can have a first face that can extend along a length of the segment body on a first side of the segment body and a second face that can extend along the length of the segment body on a second side of the segment body opposite the first side. A gullet wall can extend from the first face to the second face. The gullet wall can extend along a gullet. The segment can also include a recessed region that can extend into one or both of the first and second faces. The recessed region can include a gullet portion extending at least partially along the gullet wall.
