Abstract
The rotational center of a grinding wheel is eccentric to a slicing side in a slice feed direction with regard to the rotational center of an inner diameter saw. As a result, the diameter of the grinding wheel can be smaller, and the slice movement distance of the ingot can be shorter. Therefore, it is possible to provide a low-priced slicing machine with built-in grinder wherein a slicing time is short and the grinding face is accurate.
Claims7
An inner diameter saw slicing machine with built-in grinder, comprising:
- a doughnut-shaped blade provided with an edge formed at an inner diameter thereof and rotated for slicing an ingot into thin sheets;
- and
- a grinding wheel disposed within the blade, its rotational center being eccentric in a slice feed direction of the ingot with regard to a rotational center of the blade, the grinding wheel being rotated for grinding a cutting face of the ingot.
