ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for grinding saw teeth of a saw blade measures and grinds the tip of each tooth independently before advancing successively each tooth on the saw blade for grinding. The apparatus includes a pair of grinding wheels movable toward and away from a sawtooth secured in the grinding position. The grinding wheels are under the control of programmable controller which moves the grinding wheels in response to measurements of the side clearances on the tooth made by a tip measurement probe. The method includes measuring the side clearance of a sawtooth in the grinding position with the probe, comparing the measured dimension to a preselected dimension, and moving the grinding wheels to grind the tooth if the measured dimensions exceeds the preselected dimension. Another measurement is taken and the steps are repeated for each tooth until the sawtooth is ground within the preselected dimension. The next tooth is then advanced to the grinding position.
