Zusammenfassung:A method of cutting a workpiece with a band saw includes rotating, with a band saw machine, a blade about a central longitudinal axis. The method also includes supporting a back edge of the blade during the rotating with a back support and a first lateral side edge with a first lateral side support. The method also includes monitoring, with a first sensor, a first level of force exerted against the back support and, with a second sensor, a second level of force exerted against the first lateral side support. The method also includes moving the blade along the axis during the rotating. The method also includes dynamically controlling, with a computing device, the band saw machine during the moving in response to at least one of the first level of force and the second level of force.
