To achieve the efficient sawing of decorative stone by diamond circular saws, it is necessary to find the conditions for the most considerable sawing effect and the least bluntness consumption of diamond tool. Therefore one of the most complex questions in testing the performance of diamond circular saws is the determination of optimal sawing regime, which implies the right choice of sawing depth, longitudinal and peripheral (circular) saw velocity. To find out how the alteration of peripheral saw velocity affects the consumption of diamond segments and therewith the saw duration and its entire efficiency, the author carried out experimental explorations related to the dependence of diamond segment consumption on the alteration of peripheral saw velocity (the paper is published in Croatian).
