A Process Engineering Guide to Diamond Wire Cutting 1. Cooling and Lubrication in High-Speed Diamond Wire Cutting: A Tribological Perspective In the precision machining of hard and brittle materials—such as Silicon Carbide (SiC), sapphire, optical glass, and NdFeB magnets—the diamond wire itself represents only part of the cutting system. The other, often underestimated, half is […]

Engineering Context: The “High-Mix, Low-Volume” Challenge In the semiconductor and material science industries, manufacturing workflows are generally divided into two distinct categories: Mass Production (wafering) and Process Development (cropping/sampling). While Multi-Wire Saws (MWS) are the undisputed standard for high-throughput wafering, they suffer from inherent rigidity. Their “Fixed Pitch” architecture and massive wire management systems (often

Introduction In the realm of precision subtractive manufacturing, the gap between a successful production run and a costly failure often lies in a single variable: the cutting tool. While modern endless diamond wire saws—like the Vimfun SG and SVI series—offer robust gantry structures and linear speeds exceeding 80 m/s, the machine is ultimately only as

Introduction In micro abrasive wire cutting, the characteristics of the abrasive layer strongly determine cutting precision, kerf width stability, surface integrity, and subsurface damage. Among all parameters influencing abrasive wire performance, diamond grit size is one of the most critical. When processing brittle and high-value materials such as sapphire, silicon carbide (SiC), quartz, advanced ceramics,

Maintaining a wire cutting machine is not only about replacing the wire. True cutting stability comes from a systematic approach that considers the condition of the wheels, groove wear, wire tension performance, and the cleanliness of key mechanical components. When operators follow a consistent maintenance checklist, wire cutting systems achieve higher uptime, stronger cutting stability,
