Electroplated circular saw blade is a cutting tool that deposits metal or diamond coating on the surface of the substrate through electroplating process. Its core function is to improve the durability, cutting efficiency and application range of the saw blade. The following is a detailed analysis of its main functions and applications:
1. Enhance hardness and wear resistance
Electroplating layer materials: Usually use hard materials such as nickel, chromium, diamond particles, etc. to significantly improve the surface hardness of the saw teeth.
Advantages: Suitable for cutting high-hardness materials (such as stainless steel, alloys, ceramics, and stones), extending the life of the saw blade and reducing frequent replacement.
2. Corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance
Protective performance: The electroplating layer isolates the base metal (such as steel) from the external environment to prevent oxidation and chemical corrosion.
Applicable scenarios: humid environment, metal processing (prone to rust) or cutting high-temperature materials (such as maintaining stability under high-speed friction).
3. Reduce friction and improve cutting efficiency
Surface smoothness: The electroplating layer can reduce the friction resistance between the saw blade and the material, making cutting smoother.
Effect: Increase cutting speed, reduce energy consumption, reduce material burrs, suitable for high-precision requirements (such as fine woodworking processing).
4. Multifunctional applicability
Different coatings correspond to different materials:
Diamond coating: Cutting brittle and hard materials such as tiles, glass, and granite.
Nickel/chrome coating: Fast cutting of metal pipes and profiles.
Special alloy coating: Multi-scenario use of wood and soft metals.
5. Economical and convenient maintenance
Long life: Improved wear resistance reduces long-term use costs.
Simple maintenance: Anti-rust coating reduces maintenance requirements and is suitable for continuous industrial operations.
Typical application areas
Building materials processing: Precise cutting of tiles and stones.
Metal manufacturing: Efficient cutting of steel pipes and aluminum profiles.
Woodworking industry: Non-destructive cutting of hardwood and laminates.
Auto repair: Repair of metal parts such as exhaust pipes and frames.
Compared with other saw blades
Compared with ordinary steel saw blades: electroplated blades are more wear-resistant, but the cost is higher.
Difference from coated saw blades (such as TiN): the electroplating layer is thicker, focusing on rust prevention and overall strengthening; the PVD coating is thinner, focusing on surface hardness.
Notes
Key to selection: Select the coating type according to the cutting material (such as diamond coating is not suitable for soft metals).
Usage restrictions: The electroplating layer may fall off due to impact, and overload operation should be avoided.
Through the optimization of the electroplating process, this type of saw blade has become an efficient and durable cutting solution in the industrial and professional fields, especially suitable for scenes with high requirements for precision and tool life.
