Diamond wire saws have been designed for high-precision cutting. Cutting is carried out using a stainless steel wire set with diamond particles wound around a drum that performs an alternating movement (winding/unwinding). This process ensures that all types of samples are cut without heating up or changing their structure.
- The cut is smooth and the edges are sharp, even on hard, fragile materials.
- The cuts are highly accurate in terms of flatness and parallelism, enabling thin blades to be produced.
- The cut results in a very fine surface finish, reducing final polishing time where necessary.
- Samples are easily fixed by gluing or light clamping.
- The process does not require a cooling system.
- The liquid used cleans the wire. The reciprocating motion prevents clogging.
- In some cases, cuts can be made dry.
- Wire saws are self-contained, silent machines that can be used continuously in complete safety by the operator.
