Features of metal saw blade


Unlike ordinary consumables, metal saw blade can be resharpening.
This is where it differs from thinking of it as a normal consumable item.

In other words, to calculate running costs, you need to add up the cost of a new metal saw blade and the cost of resharpening.

Points to note when calculating the running costs of metal saw blade

If you have purchased metal saw blade, you have probably thought at least once about the running costs.


Considering the characteristics of metal saw blade, you might think that it would be cheaper to buy the cheapest metal saw blade and ask the cheapest sharpening company to do it for you.

However, since metal saw blade is saw blade used to cutting metal, it is necessary to estimate how many pieces it can cut in one go, and how many pieces in total it can cut with one new blade and 20 sharpenings.
Therefore, if you introduce a low-cost metal saw blade, your running costs may skyrocket.


Calculation formula for the running costs of metal saw blade

Suppose you have a saw blade that can cut 1,000 pieces at a time with a saw blade that costs 10,000 yen.
The cost of one polishing of the saw blade is 3,000 yen.
A total of 20 times resharpening Then, including the number of times the first new blade was used, a total of 21 times
The formula is 10,000 yen (new blade) + 3,000 yen ×20 times = 70,000 yen.
It is calculated that 1,000 × 21 times can cutting a total of 21,000 bottles.
In other words, you can cutting 21,000 bottles for 70,000 yen. (Excluding electricity, equipment, labor, etc.)


Let's say there is a high-performance saw blade that costs 30,000 yen but can cut 5,000 pieces.
Generally, the sharpening cost is the same for any saw blade, so the sharpening cost for one sharpening is 3,000 yen.
Let's say it can be resharpening the same 20 times.
The cost is 30,000 yen (new blade) + 3,000 yen x 20 times = 90,000 yen.
This means that 5,000 pieces x 21 cutting.
105,000 pieces can be cutting for 90,000 yen (Electricity costs, equipment costs, labor costs, etc. are excluded.)

Compare them in a table for easy understanding.

High-performance metal saw blade

In other words, the table shows that switching to a high-performance metal saw blade will save you money.
I think this will give you a more concrete idea of how you can reduce expenses.


*The above calculations are based on successful calculations.
*The high performance of high-performance metal saw blade also means that costs can be reduced to the minimum.

Comparison of total costs between low-metal saw blade and high-performance metal saw blade

Based on the above calculation, let's assume that we produce 1 million bottles per year.
Calculate what the total cost will be.
If you cut 1 million pieces with a low-cost metal saw blade, the total cost is
1 million ÷ 21,000 bottles × 70,000 yen = Approximately 3.33 million yen

If you were to cut 1 million pieces using a high-performance metal saw blade, the total cost would be:
1 million ÷ 105,000 bottles × 90,000 yen = Approximately 860,000 yen

The difference will be 2.47 million yen.
If you can reduce this amount, you can achieve significant cost cuts.

If you could add this cost to the fact that you could cutting quickly with a high-performance metal saw blade and save time,
Machine operating time, saw blade replacement time, labor costs, electricity costs, and other associated costs
It is thought that reductions can be achieved together.
   

* cutting performance ratio is calculated based on our company's data, but may vary depending on the user's situation (saw blade or machine used), etc.



summary

We explained the annual cost reduction of metal saw blade using our calculation formula.

  • metal saw blade running costs
  • Cost comparison between low-metal saw blade and high-performance metal saw blade
  • Total cost of metal saw blade

As can be seen from the calculations, the most important thing about metal saw blade is cutting performance (cost per cut), so it is important to consider not just the price of a new blade but also the total cost including the number of cutting.


At Daido Kogyo, our industrial machinery professionals will listen to your concerns and provide consulting support to help you solve your problems.
We would be happy to make any suggestions you may have regarding cost reduction, including for metal saw blade you are currently using.
