Single Wire Diamond Wire Saw

High-speed precision cropping, shaping, and dicing of super-hard materials

NCX 200 diamond wire slicing machine

NCX 250 Single Wire

Capable of cutting virtually any material up to 200mm in diameter.

FEATURES

  • Reel-to-reel design ideal for the slicing of super-hard materials such as SiC and Sapphire
  • Minimally destructive, low-kerf slicing with diamond wire increases yield by saving material
  • Simple, robust design minimizes maintenance costs and reduces downtime
  • Operator-friendly HMI allows for simple programming of recipes and ease of use
  • Tangential cutting method for increased surface finish quality and decreased cut time
  • PLC controlled tension system using load cells for feedback for accurate wire tension required for different wire sizes
  • Multi-wrap option available to cut multiple slices in a single action increases throughput

BENEFITS

  • Ideal for cutting hard and brittle materials such as: silicon, silicon carbide, quartz, sapphire, fused silicon glass, ceramics, graphite, germanium, etc.
  • Increased working speed over conventional slurry process
  • High-end Bosch controls ensures process stability through the duration of a cut 
  • Efficient wire usage - increases cutting speed and enables wire changes in minutes 
  • Wire break detection is standard
