Key Features description
Oscillating Cutting Technology
The SG20-R is equipped with a swing axis that allows the workpiece to oscillate during cutting. This oscillating motion continuously changes the contact area between the diamond wire and the material, reducing localized wear and improving cutting efficiency.
This feature is particularly beneficial when processing super hard materials or magnetic materials, where stable cutting conditions are essential.
360° Rotary Workpiece Motion
In addition to oscillation, the SG20-R can also be configured to rotate the workpiece up to 360 degrees during cutting. This capability enables flexible machining of cylindrical or irregular shapes while maintaining uniform cutting conditions.
The rotary function is especially useful for applications such as magnet block cutting, cylindrical component slicing, and precision material preparation.
Endless Diamond Wire Technology
The SG20-R uses Vimfun’s endless diamond wire system, where a closed-loop diamond wire runs continuously in a single direction. This design eliminates the reversing motion found in traditional wire saws.
Advantages include:
higher cutting speed
lower vibration during machining
smoother cutting surfaces
longer wire lifetime
This technology makes the SG20-R a highly stable diamond wire cutting machine for hard materials.
High Precision Cutting Performance
The machine is designed with precision linear guides, stable tension control, and advanced motion control systems. These features ensure accurate feeding and stable cutting performance, allowing manufacturers to achieve tight dimensional tolerances.
The stable cutting mechanism also helps produce smooth surfaces with minimal chipping, reducing the need for additional grinding or polishing processes.Efficient Processing of Magnetic Materials
Magnetic materials such as NdFeB magnets and SmCo magnets are extremely hard and brittle, making them difficult to machine using conventional cutting tools.
The SG20-R oscillating diamond wire saw provides a highly effective solution for these materials by combining oscillating cutting motion with precision wire cutting, significantly improving cutting stability and productivity.
Flexible Material Compatibility
The SG20-R is suitable for cutting a wide range of hard and brittle materials, including:
NdFeB magnets
SmCo magnets
Advanced ceramics
silicon carbide ceramics
graphite materials
optical materials
composite materials
This versatility makes the machine suitable for both industrial manufacturing and research applications.
Why Choose the SG20-R Oscillating Diamond Wire Saw
Compared with conventional cutting technologies, the SG20-R provides several key advantages:
improved cutting stability for super hard materials
longer diamond wire life
reduced cutting force and vibration
better surface quality
flexible oscillating and rotary cutting capability
These advantages make the SG20-R an ideal solution for companies working with magnetic materials, advanced ceramics, and other difficult-to-machine materials.
Why Many Manufacturers Are Switching to Diamond Wire Cutting
Many manufacturers previously used ID saw (inner diameter saw) for slicing hard and brittle materials. While this technology has been widely used for many years, modern materials such as magnetic materials, sapphire, and advanced ceramics require higher precision and better material utilization.
Today, more manufacturers are switching to diamond wire cutting technology, which provides lower cutting stress, narrower kerf loss, and more flexible machining capabilities.
Key Technology Differences
| Feature | ID Saw (Inner Diameter Saw) | Diamond Wire Saw |
|---|---|---|
| Cutting Tool | Circular blade with diamond edge | Continuous diamond wire loop |
| Cutting Motion | Rotating blade slicing | High-speed wire grinding |
| Kerf Width | 0.5 – 1.0 mm | As low as 0.35 mm |
| Cutting Stress | Higher | Lower |
| Surface Quality | May require more finishing | Smoother surface |
| Cutting Flexibility | Mainly straight slicing | Slicing, contour, multi-axis cutting |
| Material Utilization | Lower | Higher |

What materials can the SG20-R diamond wire saw cut?
Why is the SG20-R suitable for cutting magnetic materials?
Magnetic materials such as NdFeB and SmCo are extremely hard and brittle. The SG20-R features an oscillating workpiece axis, which distributes the cutting force along the diamond wire and reduces localized stress. This improves cutting stability and surface quality.
What is the advantage of oscillating cutting?
The oscillating motion continuously changes the contact point between the diamond wire and the workpiece. This helps:
reduce wire wear
improve cutting efficiency
increase cutting stability
extend diamond wire lifetime
This is particularly useful when cutting super hard materials.
Can the workpiece rotate during cutting?
Does the machine require a specialized environment or setup conditions?
What kind of technical support and warranty do you offer with the purchase of this equipment?
Is the SG20-R suitable for research laboratories?
Yes. The SG20-R is suitable for both industrial production and research laboratories. Its flexible cutting motion and high precision make it ideal for material testing, prototype development, and sample preparation.
How is it different from a traditional wire saw?
Traditional wire saws use kilometers-long wires moving back and forth, which require direction changes and tension adjustments.
The Vimfun endless wire saw eliminates this by using a short closed loop that moves continuously in one direction.
This improves cutting efficiency, extends wire life, and produces a cleaner, more precise cut.
What are the safety precautions during endless diamond wire saw operation?
Always check wire integrity before startup.
Vimfun machines include emergency stop functions and speed monitoring for safety assurance.
Does Vimfun Diamond Wire Saw offer customization or OEM service?
Engineering teams can adjust wire length, machine size, and automation level based on client requirements.
