Steel saws for your workshop

"Steel" is a very broad term. When we talk about steel, we are generally referring to iron-based materials that contain a certain proportion of carbon. Starting with these "basic elements", various alloy elements are added to steels with the aim of producing the ideal material and achieving the preferred properties. Corrosion resistance, wear resistance, heat resistance and weldability: these are just some of the properties that can be positively or negatively influenced by alloy elements. It is important to note that these elements often do not influence only one of the above-mentioned properties of the material. For example, chromium increases strength but also reduces the weldability of the steel.

When designing and building our saws, we look at a wide range of properties of iron-based materials and any potential constituent elements. The end product is a machine tool that will cope with a diverse range of requirements. The most important factor is the composition of the saw blades; after all, the blades do the cutting work required to remove the raw material. Ideally, the blade material should have a combination of a range of properties, such as high levels of strength and toughness.
