These wear-resisting tools are set on high precision machines that work without any vibration and a rigid clamping

of the material is assured. Therefore the requirements for these high precision tools are tightest tolerances for high

cutting speeds and feeds, better tool life, and sharp cutting edges. The high precision and mirror finish of these blades

guarantees a super cut surface which normally does not require any further finish operations.

Tooth Form Definition

Tooth form A+AW with top land    For small slitting depth and thin wall tubes.

Characteristic tooth form A with top land:

Straight tooth (A) for normal sawing operations.

Characteristic tooth form AW with top land:

Straight tooth with alternating bevel (AW) for double chip breaking.

Tooth form B+BW    For solid material, heavy slitting depth and tubes with wall thickness over 2.5mm.

Characteristic tooth form B:

Curved tooth (B) for normal sawing operations.

Characteristic tooth form BW:

Curved tooth with alternating bevel (BW) for double chip breaking.

Tooth form C    For solid material, heavy sawing operations and tubes with wall thickness over 2.5mm.

Characteristic tooth form C:

Curved tooth with high-low design (C) for triple chip breaking per tooth pair.

Surface Technology

Makas Carbide surface technology is defined by the roughness value and the treatment of the surface.  

The surface of tools made of solid carbide is available in high polished mirror grinding or unpolished 

precision grinding.The execution of the surface is determined by the application of the tool. 

The roughness value is between 0.01 and 0.2 µm.

High Polished Mirror Grinding

The standard surface of the Carbide tools is characterized by a high polished mirror grinding. Low friction and excellent 

sliding value are guaranteeing an excellent cutting performance and long tool life.

Thin Coating Technology

Makas Carbide offers various coatings in order to optimize tool performance. Wear shortens the life time of the saw blades. 

Since more and more production processes are being automated the wear of the tool is a steadily rising cost factor. 

Therefore wear protection is becoming increasingly important from the economic point of view. 

This is the point where the thin coating technology starts. Coatings with thin layers have been proved successful 

in the past years.
