Diamond Wire Saw

The application range of diamond wire saws in the stone working industry has increased more and more. Today, wire saws are available for three major applications:

■ Stationary block sawing

■ Contour wire saw

■ Quarries

There are three diamond wire saw systems for extracting raw blocks from quarries: Diamond wire saw with steel springs Diamond wire saw with plastic coating Diamond wire saw with rubber coating

Soft stones such as marble, mimestone or travertine are sawn with spring-type wire saws, fitted with electroplated or sintered diamond beads.

Hard stones such as granite, gabbro, etc., are a considerably tougher application for diamond wire saws. The design used here features plastic coating or rubber coating between the diamond beads.

For very tough applications (such as cutting reinforced concrete), the spacing between the diamond beads can also be fixed by means of springs.

The use of diamond wire saw for quarry reduced the waste of quarry resource, no noise, no dust, safely, block regular, high output and working efficiency. This rubber assembly protects the steel cable very well and increases the wires strength. The beads with diameter 1mm and 1.6mm diamond layer can be used till diameter 8mm. For extracting calcareous stones, plastified assembled wires are in operation. The use of both sintered and electroplated diamond beads enlarges the fields of application in a wide extent.
