OPTO SERVICE tools refer to implements used in woodworking. They generally have sharp cutting edges, so safety must be prioritized during use. Frequent sharpening is required, especially for plane blades and chisels; keeping them sharp ensures both ease of use and quality, as the saying goes, "sharpening the axe does not delay the woodcutting." Woodworking tools are categorized into power tools, pneumatic tools, and hand tools. Power tools can be divided by function into multi-function tools (such as multi-purpose oscillating tools) and single-function tools (such as electric planers, jigsaws, circular saws, sanders, and engravers); pneumatic tools include polishers and nail guns; hand tools include measuring tools, hand saws, woodworking planes, wood files, hand chisels, and sandpaper.

OPTO SERVICE tool classification

1) Squeeze-exhaust suction cups expel all air from the cup by downward squeezing force, creating a negative pressure state inside to hold the workpiece. Advantages include simple structure, light weight, and low cost. However, the suction force is not strong, making them suitable mainly for small-sized, thin, and light workpieces. 2) Airflow negative pressure suction cups use an airflow control valve to inject compressed air from an air pump through a nozzle, forming a high-speed jet that removes air from the suction cup cavity, creating negative pressure to hold the object. If compressed air is available at the worksite, using this type of suction cup is convenient and low-cost. 3) Vacuum pump exhaust suction cups connect a vacuum pump to the suction cup via an electromagnetic control valve. When the control valve evacuates air, negative pressure forms in the cup cavity to hold the object. Conversely, when the control valve connects the suction cup to the atmosphere, the suction is lost and the workpiece is released. The suction force of vacuum pump suction cups mainly depends on the adsorption area and the degree of vacuum in the inner q cavity (referring to the rarefaction of air). This type of suction cup is reliable and provides strong suction, but requires a vacuum pump and airflow control system, resulting in higher costs. 4) Mechanical clamping: The structure of a straight-bar dual-cylinder translational gripper involves fingers mounted on a straight bar with finger mounting seats. When pressurized gas enters the rod-side chambers of the single-acting dual cylinders, the two pistons move inward to clamp the workpiece; when no pressurized gas is present, springs push the two pistons outward to release the workpiece. A flow divider valve is installed in the cylinder intake line to ensure synchronized piston movement. This type of end effector is used in loading and unloading assembly stations.

OPTO SERVICE tool usage

1) Rip cutting method: During sawing, place the wood on a bench, step on it with your right foot perpendicular to the cut line, stand straight with your left foot at a 60° angle to the cut line, keep your right hand vertical to your right knee, and position your body at approximately a 45° angle to the cut line. Lean forward slightly and remain flexible, but do not lean left or lunge right. Hold the saw with your right hand and place your left thumb against the blade for positioning. Gently pull and push the saw a few times (pull first, then push) to start the kerf, then remove your left hand from the edge. When the teeth have cut about 5mm into the wood, use your left hand to assist your right hand in lifting and pushing the frame saw. Lift lightly, raising the saw hand slightly; push heavily, applying force with your wrist, elbow, shoulder, and waist rhythmically. This ensures the saw blade follows the cut line. Otherwise, the edge of the rip-cut wood will be curved or uneven. 2) Cross-cutting method: During sawing, place the wood on a bench, stand to the left rear of the wood, hold the wood with your left hand, hold the saw with your right hand, and step on the wood with your left foot. The sawing motion is the same as for rip cutting. When using a frame saw, the lower end of the blade should tilt forward. For rip sawing, the upper end of the blade tilts backward at an angle of approximately 75°—90° (relative to the wood surface); for cross-cutting, the blade tilts backward at an angle of approximately 30°—45°. Always ensure the saw blade follows the line without deviation. Keep the cut straight; do not allow the blade to sway left or right, which causes skewing. When the wood is nearly severed, stabilize the offcut with your left hand, slow down the sawing speed, and cut completely through. Do not leave any material to break off naturally or snap it by hand, as this can damage the saw blade and cause the wood to split along the grain, affecting quality.

1) Plane blade adjustment: When installing the plane blade, first fit it properly with the cap iron, controlling the distance between their cutting edges, then insert it into the plane body. With the cutting edge close to the sole, add the wedge, press down slightly, hold the left corner of the sole with your left hand, and use your thumb to secure the wedge, cap iron, and blade. Tap with a hammer to adjust the blade so that the cutting edge protrudes from the mouth. The amount of protrusion is proportional to the cutting depth: more for rough planing, less for fine planing. To check the blade protrusion, lift the plane with your left hand, sole facing up, and sight along it with one eye. If the protrusion is inappropriate, tap the top end of the blade lightly. If it protrudes too much and needs retraction, tap the rear end of the plane body lightly. If one corner of the cutting edge protrudes, simply tap the upper side of the same corner of the blade. 2) Planing technique: When planing, extend the index fingers of both hands forward to press on the plane body, press the thumbs on the rear of the blade, and grip the handle firmly with the remaining fingers and palms. Keep the plane body level and apply uniform force with both hands. When pushing forward, increase pressure with both thumbs and apply slight pressure with the index fingers; gradually reduce pressure towards the front end until no pressure is applied. When pulling back, lift the rear of the plane slightly to prevent the blade from dragging on the wood surface, which can dull it. When planing long stock, step forward with the left foot, followed by the right. Before planing long stock, determine whether the surface is heartwood or sapwood; generally, heartwood is cleaner with clearer grain. If it is heartwood, plane from the root to the tip; if it is sapwood, plane from the tip to the root. Planing along the grain direction saves effort. Otherwise, "tear-out" may occur, resulting in a rough, uneven surface and excessive effort. During planing, keep the plane sole tightly against the wood surface. Do not lift the front of the plane at the start, and do not let the front dip at the end (commonly known as "nodding"). Otherwise, the middle part of the planed surface will bulge, a common mistake among beginners that must be corrected.
