Diamond Wire Saw
DWS250
With the diamond wire saw we can make fine separation cuts in materials such as glasses, ceramics, plastics, metals and composite materials.
Depending on the diamond wire strength – samples can be cut without structural changes and, if necessary, without cooling lubricant.
- Sample dimensions max. 245 mm x 245 mm
- Clamping device: Slot table
- Wire diameter: 0.2 mm - 0.45 mm
- Cutting Speed: 0-4 m/sec
