Wire Saw

Description

 The precision endless wire saw is designed for smooth and precise cutting of a wide range of materials using a diamond-coated wire and anti-corrosive cutting fluid. It is particularly well-suited for cutting valuable, delicate, and fragile crystals such as SrTiO₃, YVO₄, and GaAs. The system includes a digital micrometer that allows for controlled horizontal movement of the sample stage up to 2 inches (50.8 mm), along with a two-axis goniometer for precise rotation and tilting during cutting.

Capabilities

  • Diamond wire cutting system – Provides smooth, low-damage cuts for delicate and hard materials 
  • Sample stage size (80 × 50 mm) – Accommodates a range of specimen sizes 
  • Maximum cutting thickness (50 mm) – Supports relatively thick samples 
  • Adjustable wire speed (0–3 m/s) – Allows control over cutting rate and precision 
  • Rotational speed (50–900 rpm) – Enables optimized cutting conditions for different materials 
  • Digital micrometer (up to 50.8 mm travel) – Ensures precise horizontal positioning and feed control 
  • Two-axis goniometer – Allows full 360° horizontal rotation and up to 30° tilt for accurate sample alignment
