This message comes from Steve Redick:

On Saturday, March 11th, 2017, at 48 W Garfield Blvd, it looks like Chicago Fire Department Squad 5 had a length of 1 3/4-inch hose strapped to the front bumper. It seems like they were preparing it for use with an engine or a divider—pretty cool to see!

These photos give a great glimpse into the daily operations of the Chicago Fire Department. From squad trucks to engines and ambulances, each image tells a story of dedication and service. Steve's collection is a valuable visual record of the department's efforts on that particular day.

Wood Industrial Knives

Wood Industrial Knives
There are many types of knives used in the wood processing industry, and different blades are suitable for different wood processing links and requirements. The following is an introduction to several common knives used in the wood processing industry:
1. Circular Saw Blades
Function and application: Saw blades are the main tools used for wood cutting, usually used in conjunction with circular saws. They can be used to cut wood crosswise or cut wood longitudinally into boards or logs.
Material and design: Common saw blade materials include high-speed steel (HSS), carbon steel, and carbide (carbide steel). The design has different tooth shapes and numbers of blades according to different cutting requirements and wood types.
2. Planer Knives
Function and application: Planers are mainly used to plane the surface of wood to make it smooth. They are used in conjunction with planers or thickness machines for flattening wood.
Material and design: Planers are usually made of high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide, with high wear resistance and cutting efficiency. The design of planers includes different blade angles and numbers of blades to meet different processing needs.
Function and application: Wood chippers are mainly used to quickly and efficiently cut large or whole pieces of wood into wood chips or wood chips. They are widely used in the wood processing and papermaking industries to produce wood fuel, wood board, pulp, etc.
Tool design and material:
Chippers usually have a multi-blade design, and the blades are mounted on a rotating blade disc, so that the wood can be quickly cut on the blade disc and produce wood chips. Commonly used chipper materials include high-speed steel (HSS), cemented carbide (tungsten carbide), etc. These materials have good wear resistance and cutting performance, and are suitable for high-intensity wood processing.
