Tungsten Carbide Can Increase Production

Describes proper application of tungsten-carbide tools in the woodworking industry to increase production and profits per man hour of labor and per unit of machines. The essential requisites to a thoroughly satisfactory and economic tungsten carbide tool operation are: 1) A thorough knowledge of the machinery on which they are used, 2) familiarity with materials being cut or machined, 3) ability to design and produce tools having proper engineering qualities for the job, 4) proper application, 5) proper operation, and 6) skilled maintenance of tools. Operation of tungsten-carbide-tipped saws at 7200 rpm opens the way to the use of much thinner-gage saws at far higher feed rates with complete and proper maintenance of correct chip-loading.
