Correct Tooth Pitch - Optimum Performance
The
choice of the right tooth pitch can be decisive to achieve the
optimum performance to cut the relevant cross section. Choose
either Standard tooth with constant tooth pitch or Variable tooth
with unevenly spaced teeth. It is advisable to use Variable
tooth to cut problematic work pieces to reduce vibrations.
