Abstract
This article presents a stress analysis of a saw tooth. The analysis aims to determine the stress distribution for various egde load and varying microgeometry. The analysis is performed on a three-dimensional finite element model representing the tip of a saw tooth. The 3D model makes it possible to model the load distribution and study stress distributions across the width of the teeth with a sufficient accuracy. The FEM calculations are based on experimental measurements of the individual cutting forces during bandsawing. The previous studies of nonuniform contact relationships on the rake face is used when modelling the load distribution.
