Test Report No.: 17702074 003
Part I of II
Saw blade flanges (or in the case of flush mounted saw
blades, a flange) shall be provided.
The diameter of each flange shall be at least D/4 (where
D = the diameter of the largest saw blade/scoring saw
blade for which the machine is designed).
For flanges other than those for flush mounted saw
blades, the clamping surface at the outside part of the
flange shall be at least 2 mm in width and the flange(s)
shall be recessed to the centre (see Figure 5).
Where two flanges are provided, both outside diameters
of the clamping surfaces shall be within a tolerance of ± 1
mm.
Loosening the saw blade(s) during start up, running, run-
down or braking shall be prevented, e.g. by using a
positive connection between the saw spindle and the saw
blade or by using a positive connection between the front
saw flange and the saw spindle.
Flanged bushes shall be provided where the spindle
diameter is different from the bore size of the saw
blade(s) for which the machine is designed.
Verification: By checking the relevant drawings,
measurement, inspection of the machine and relevant
functional testing of the machine.
Saw blade diameter is
254mm.
Diameter of the saw blade
flange is 63.5mm.
Clamping surface is
5.75mm in width.
Outside diameter of both
flanges is identical.
Inside part of the flange is
positive connected with the
saw spindle to prevent
loosing of the saw blade.
Milling tools for grooving fixing devices
For circular saw benches with the facility for grooving with
milling tools milling tool flanges shall be provided.
