Abstract

Rock sawing is a critical process in various industries, including mining, construction, and quarrying. Understanding the mechanical properties of rocks, such as brittleness, is crucial for optimizing the efficiency of rock sawing operations. This study investigates the relationship between various brittleness indexes and specific ampere draw, a key performance parameter in rock sawing. A comprehensive dataset of rock samples with varying brittleness characteristics is analyzed. The study employs statistical methods and regression analysis to quantify the connection between brittleness indexes and specific ampere draw. The findings provide valuable insights for selecting suitable rock types for sawing operations and optimizing cutting parameters, ultimately enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of rock sawing processes.
