Abstract

Innovative developments of hollow cellular mat for lightweight structure must satisfy sustainability, fit for purpose and optimize design concepts. However, such materials necessitate appropriate cutting technology to allow trimming and shaping operations to be easily carried out on an excessive porous and perhaps non uniformity nature. This paper presents a work that aims at studying the machinability of porous cellular mat using a newly innovative cutting technology. A large structure of vertical bandsaw has been fabricated to cut the product with the size of 1m (width) x 1m (height) x 1m (long). The systems also equipped with a feeding table and strong structure frame to avoid product shifting during the cutting operation. The surface integrity showed minimum deformation with uniformed direction of surface removal marks. The cutting technology developed in this study is suitable for the hollow cellular mat for its simple trimming and shaping process and fine surface profile.
