Bandsaw Blade Tension Gauge

Description

The offered device for purchase is green, exactly the one in the photos!
Others have older versions and are for informational purposes only.
Box for safe storage of the device.
Made of thick cardboard so as not to be crushed and to be light and cheap for delivery with courier companies around the world.
The device is used for precise measurement of tensile strength in band saw blades.
It is used to measure the tensile strength that is generated inside the blade itself, which is much more precise and reliable than the devices that are mounted on some machines on the machine body itself.
The device has a combined scale, which shows the strength in kg / cm2 and in pounds. Additionally, the scale is color-coded, which further facilitates fast and pleasant work with the force meter.
Due to the nature of the alloy from which the band saw blades are made, it is possible to say that the desired and recommended tensile strength for all types of wood band saws is in the dark green scale of the indicator, about 1400 kg / cm2!
It does not matter if the saw is 40 cm. wheels or with 1m. wheels! The tensile strength regardless of the width of the belt and the diameter of the wheels of the saw is always the same per 1 / cm2 section of the belt itself!
Very often in our work with the maintenance of wood processing plants we face the problem of highly overtightened blades of machines that crack and tear, because often workers can not sharpen the blades well. Poorly sharpened blades do not cut well and this leads to crooked cutting of the wood, to avoid this curving, the workers of the machines themselves start to tighten the strips additionally, often overtightening them 2-3 times above the allowable! These poorly sharpened and heavily overtightened blades have a very short life of 2-3 days or a week or two before they are completely destroyed. This constant tearing of blades and buying a new one is very expensive.
The device has repeatedly shown and found machines with such overstretched straps. Some wood processing plants in our country Bulgaria have already purchased such a device from us and successfully use it to control the tension of the strips on their machines.
At the link below you can see a video showing the work with the force meter. In this video we are in a wood processing factory where they have a problem with the frequent cracking and tearing of blades on a large-massive band saw with a diameter of 1 meter on the wheels.The problem in this case is the wear of the working part of the wheels, the work of the blade becomes unstable - it goes back and forth continuously. To stabilize the blade in one place, workers tighten the blade further using an extension lever. Thus, in this case, they overstretch the blade twice above the permissible norm and this leads to frequent cracking and tearing of the bandsaw blades. The last part of the video shows the tension of the blade exactly to the required values ​​with the help of the device.
This is a very useful device that you can easily use to control the tension of the blades and save you a lot of money and nerves later.

Inside the box there are detailed instructions for working with the device. On the back of the device itself there is a sticker on which additional recommended values ​​for tensioning of blades are indicated for different types of band saws in the wood processing industry, as well as for band saws for metal.
An additional option is to order the device with an indicator that does not have a combined scale of kg / cm2 and PSI but only in one scale. Only in kg / cm2 or only in PSI, depending on your preferences. For this purpose, after you have ordered the device, write to us to specify whether you want it to stay with a combined scale or be only in kilograms or pounds.
The device is specially designed for wood saws! But it can also measure the strength of metal-cutting saws. For easier and more precise work with the device in the box there is a detailed instruction in which are described and given exemplary recommended values for working with different types of saws for wood and metal. Different tensile values according to the width of the blade are described on metal saws working with bimetallic blades.
We are a small family company from Bulgaria, which produces and repairs machines for wood processing enterprises. We insist on correctness and guarantee that you will get what is from the photos, tested and working.
Delivery. Worldwide delivery:
The force meter can be shipped anywhere in the world except China! We do not ship to China, if you are from China, please do not order, the appliance will not be shipped! Please note that deliveries to different parts of the world have different deadlines! For most of the world it is up to 10-15 working days! At the moment, however, with the confused global traffic due to the virus, it is possible that delivery will be delayed, which is not up to us.
