customer can be sure that the machine meets their demands before the first physical part is manufactured. To prevent failures due to worn out or damaged saw blades, framag can implement a saw process monitoring tool. This tool is continuously checking process parameters and signals and an algorithm is detecting anomalies and deviations from the desired cutting process. It is possible to detect critical wear or damage to single cutting inserts of the saw blade and alerts the operator to check the tool before continuing with the next cut. Costly failures due to worn out or damaged tools can be reduced significantly and the downtime of the

FRAMAG has been a developer and producer of high-performance circular sawing machines for more than 30 years, with machines still running smoothly after three decades. Its latest innovations aim to increase productivity and efficiency of the sawing machines to help guarantee its customers even long- lasting advantages. The circular sawing machines from framag are being developed by applying a digital twin of the machine already in the design phase of a project. With the digital twin, all of the important specifications, such as cutting time, cycle time and part manipulation, can be tested at a very early stage and the

machine can be kept at a minimum. Similar to milling, exchangeable cutting inserts for saw blades are on the rise. The main body of the saw blade, which can be reused a number of times, can be easily tipped and retipped with the cutting inserts and lasts several times longer than regular saw blades. This not only saves money directly from the tooling costs, it also renders shipping of saw blades for resharpening obsolete. framag not only offers saw blades with this technology, but also an automatic saw blade measuring system. As the demand for high quality steel grades is increasing, cutting processes are a challenging part of the manufac- turing process. Sawing machines by framag are customised to meet the particular requirements of the cutting task. Optimised design and engineering make sure that the sawing of tubes, pipes, rails, profiles and billets is as efficient and productive as possible. The main body of the saw blade can easily be tipped and retipped
