Circular blades, uses and applications
Circular blades are cutting tools shaped like a metal disc with either a serrated or smooth edge -but always sharpened- used to make longitudinal cuts accross a wide variety of materials. Many industrial sectors rely on this type of blade for their work, whis is why in this article we will be looking at circular blades, their uses and applications.
Manufacturing circular blades
A wide range of materials are used in their production, but the most common for manufacturing circular blades are carbon steel, stainless steel and tungsten carbide. These materials are highly resistant, maintain excellent performance over long periods of time, and extend the intervals between re-sharpening.
High-quality circular blades allow for higher productivity, since their longer lifespan reduces maintenance requirements and minimises machine downtime.
At Ciba, we only work with the most qualifide blade suppliers to offer companies the highest possible cutting and packaging quality.
Circular blades and their uses
As mentioned above, circular blades are extremely versatile as they can cut a wide range of materials -from softer ones like paper to harder ones such as metals. They are commonly found in machines like circular saws, grinders, and continuous cutting systems.
Depending on the blade’s diameter, number of teeth, and thickness, each one is more suitable for specific tasks. Circular blades are widely used accross industries such as printing and packaging, machinery manufacturing, recycling, and food processing, among others.
