From: Minor cutting edge force contribution in wood bandsawing
The cutting force can be divided into two zones: Zone I major cutting edge force (\(F_\text {cS}\)) and friction forces on the major first flank (\(F_{cS\upmu }\)) and Zone II minor cutting edge forces (\(F_\text {cS'}\)) and friction forces on the minor first flanks (\(F_{\text {cS'}\upmu }\))
