Why This Cutting Guide Matters
Hard and brittle materials pose unique challenges — micro-cracks, surface chipping, and thermal stress can easily occur when improper parameters are applied.
This technical guide summarizes:
Recommended wire diameters (0.35 – 0.8 mm) and wire speeds up to 80 m/s
Optimiert feed rates for each material type
Cooling and dust-extraction methods to protect both product and equipment
Comparative data versus traditional saws (inner-diameter, band saw, etc.)
Engineers can use these verified parameters as a benchmark to improve precision and efficiency.
