Abstract
The invention relates to a method for joining hard material bodies to teeth of a saw blade, in particular of a band saw blade or circular saw blade, wherein each tooth has a tooth face and a tooth back, and the method includes steps of bringing each tooth of the saw blade into a working region, guiding each hard material body toward the tooth located in the working region, advancing a joining device into the working region, joining the hard material body to the tooth located in the working region, and withdrawing the joining device out of the working region. According to the invention, each hard material body is joined to the tooth back of each tooth.
Claims9
A method for joining hard material bodies to teeth of a saw blade, each tooth having a tooth face and a tooth back, and the method comprising the following steps:
- bringing a respective tooth of the saw blade into a working region;
- guiding a respective hard material body toward the tooth located in the working region;
- advancing a joining device into the working region;
- joining the hard material body to the tooth located in the working region;
- and withdrawing the joining device out of the working region;
- wherein each hard material body is joined to the tooth back of a respective tooth, and wherein the joining device is a welding device having a welding electrode, and a respective hard material body and a respective tooth are joined to one another by welding, and in a step preceding the joining process, at least one welding introduction attachment protruding from a joining surface of the tooth or from a joining surface of the hard material body is formed on the tooth back of each tooth of the saw blade or on each hard material body, the welding introduction attachment melts when a welding pulse is introduced, and each hard material body is ground to its final shape in a step preceding the joining process, wherein the tooth back is formed on the side of the tooth facing away from a cutting direction of the saw blade, and the hard material body is joined only to the side of the tooth facing away from the cutting direction.
An apparatus for joining hard material bodies to teeth of a saw blade, each tooth having a tooth face and a tooth back, comprising a saw blade feed device for moving the saw blade in a feed direction such that a respective tooth of the saw blade is brought into a working region of the apparatus;
- a joining device is advanced into the working region and withdrawn again out of the working region, wherein the joining device is designed to join each hard material body to the tooth back of a respective tooth, wherein the joining device is a welding device having a welding electrode, and a respective hard material body and a respective tooth are joined to one another by welding in such that at least one welding introduction attachment protruding from a joining surface of the tooth or from a joining surface of the hard material body formed on the tooth back of each tooth of the saw blade or on each hard material body melts when a welding pulse is introduced, and each hard material body is ground to its final shape in a step preceding the joining process, wherein the tooth back is formed on the side of the tooth facing away from a cutting direction of the saw blade, and the hard material body is joined only to the side of the tooth facing away from the cutting direction.
A saw blade comprising teeth and hard material bodies attached to the teeth, each tooth comprising a tooth face and a tooth back, wherein the hard material bodies are attached to the tooth backs of the teeth by welding in such that at least one welding introduction attachment protruding from a joining surface of the tooth or from a joining surface of the hard material body formed on the tooth back of each tooth of the saw blade or on each hard material body was melted when a welding pulse was introduced, and the hard material bodies are ground to their final shape before being joined to the teeth of the saw blade such that a saw blade having fully ground hard material bodies is formed directly after the joining process, wherein the tooth back is formed on the side of the tooth facing away from a cutting direction of the saw blade, and the hard material body is joined only to the side of the tooth facing away from the cutting direction.
