Experimental verification of bandsaw roll-tensioning theory

Abstract
The validity of a bandsaw roll-tensioning theory developed by the author is verified based on a model experiment. It is shown that the actual roll-tensioning process can be clearly explained by this theory. Roll-stretching force transmission coefficients are introduced in this theory. These coefficients, which indicate the magnitude of the compression force parallel to the bandsaw surface at the roll-stretching position, are affected by the thickness of the bandsaw blade, the radius of the bandsaw blade vent at the measurement of tension, and the straightness of the bandsaw blade at the measurement of crown back, among others. For the practical use of this theory, therefore, it is necessary to determine the proper magnitude of these coefficients based on tensioning experiments.
