Strong and durable wood is recognized by experts as the safest material for humans and the environment. The degree of environmental friendliness can be safely assessed with the highest rating, which significantly expands the final scope of natural raw materials. For work, specialists use milling cutters for wood splicing, due to which original and durable products are obtained.
Description
Wood processing technology takes a lot of time and effort from craftsmen. At the first stage, the raw materials are thoroughly dried, sawn into blanks and coated with a special compound. All work is carried out at large enterprises that are equipped with the necessary equipment. When the wood has gone through all the stages of preparation, boards and other materials are made from it.
All blanks go to factories, where professionals produce not only construction products, but also variousfurniture. During work, wood parts of different shapes and sizes can be used, which is why splicing and gluing is simply indispensable. The first method is relevant in relation to blanks of the same size and shape. But splicing can be carried out in length, width, and also thickness. Pre-prepared ends may have special spikes, as well as grooves. Due to this, the strength of the connection of different parts is significantly increased.
Characteristic
Today there are several types of cutters for wood, but all models differ in the general principle of structure. Manufacturers provided for the presence of a working part and a shank, and also installed a cutting edge. For the manufacture of important components, high-alloy steel is used, which boasts increased strength. Both in the disk and in the straight model, the shape of the cutter pattern is always maximally verified. Only high-quality equipment with minimal impact can be used for sharpening. Only then can the performance of the tool be improved.
Varieties
Experts identify two main categories of cutters for wood splicing: end and shell. The diameter of their shank can be 8, 12 and 32 mm. Attached models are used for a spindle with a diameter of 3.2 centimeters. Such products are considered classic for stationary equipment. End mills for splicing wood are actively usedprofessionals.
According to the type of construction, products can be solid, welded, prefabricated and even soldered. Depending on the tasks, the units are ring, disk, end and cylindrical. Longitudinal wood splicing cutters can be used on horizontal, engraving, vertical, and multi-functional CNC machines.
Technological process
Professionals have been actively using cutters for splicing wood along the length for several years now. The first machines appeared more than three centuries ago. Today, the milling cutter is an indispensable tool for high-quality processing of natural wood blanks. Wood splicing cutters allow you to realize the following ideas:
- Create holes in the material. Arrangement of grooves and folds, without which it is simply impossible to produce parts of various shapes with high quality.
- Cutting spikes of different sizes, with the help of which individual fragments are glued together.
Quality milling machines are widespread not only in the domestic industry, but also in large enterprises. The ease and simplicity of manufacturing various wooden blanks for subsequent gluing can be estimated at 4 points. In order for the result to meet all expectations, you must first acquire the necessary experience.
Care
Absolutely all varieties of wood cutters need proper conditions. Specialistsshould promptly check the degree of sharpening, as well as the absence of chips, cracks. After working with the tool, it is cleaned of resins, dust and other debris. Machines must be stored in a designated area. If the master knows that he will not use the unit for a long time, then all components must be lubricated with standard engine oil.
For sharpening high speed steel, it is better to use grinding bars or special machines. If the selected nozzle has plates of carbide material, then all manipulations should be performed exclusively by specialized devices. Only flat sections of the working surface of the incisors can be processed.
Working teeth
All wood cutters sold today can be conditionally divided into different categories. The design of products can be prefabricated or solid. If the tool boasts of being compact, manufacturers can make it one-piece, a hundred is also very convenient. This nuance does not significantly affect the cost of the unit. Larger models may feature a soft shank and fairly strong edge.
The prefabricated wood cutter has a significant advantage, since the user can always choose the most suitable diameter for the size required for the workpiece. If the product is worn out, then you can quickly replace the problem area with new incisors. Experts identify only two effective ways of sharpening teeth: pointed and backed. The last option is more popular. During sharpening, the height of the teeth does not change at all, which is impossiblesay about spiky models.
According to the level of hardness, experts distinguish a group of cutters of series A (for professional use), as well as category N. The latter option is more suitable for home use. Of course, powerful professional units are quite expensive, but with their help you can turn the most daring ideas into reality. Products from the A series favorably differ from all analogues in their durability and functionality. For everyday tasks, an affordable option is quite enough. If you properly care for the purchased router, then it will definitely last for many years without giving the user any trouble with repair work.
