Single Wire Diamond Wire Saw

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

NCX 200 diamond wire slicing machine

NCX Series Single Wire

Designed for demanding applications such as SiC and Sapphire, the NCX Series delivers higher precision, higher speeds, and production-grade performance.

FEATURES

  • Wire speeds up to 25 m/s for maximum throughput
  • Operator-friendly touchscreen HMI allows for simple programming and storage of 30 process recipes while still prioritizing ease of use
  • PLC-controlled tension system with load-cell feedback ensures precise tension across wire sizes
  • Multi-wrap capability enables multiple slices per pass, significantly increasing output
  • Supports up to 5 wraps within a 10 mm guide
  • Standard indexing table, with optional high-precision encoder upgrade


BENEFITS

  • Ideal for cutting hard and brittle materials such as: silicon, silicon carbide, quartz, sapphire, fused silicon glass, ceramics, graphite, germanium, etc.
  • Minimal kerf loss for faster cuts and improved surface finish
  • High-end controls ensures process stability through the duration of a cut
