Abstract

The present disclosure provides a grinding wheel cutting apparatus comprising a first laser distance sensor, a master controller and a grinding wheel. The first laser distance sensor is communicatively coupled to the master controller. The laser distance sensor is configured to obtain an outer diameter of a rod workpiece. The master controller is configured to determine a segment length of a segment to be cut from the rod workpiece based on the outer diameter, a material density of the rod workpiece and a preset segment weight. The master controller is configured to perform a control to circularly cut the rod workpiece with the grinding wheel according to the segment length. The present disclosure further relates to a cutting method using the grinding wheel cutting apparatus.
