Multi-Function Multi-Wire Saw Machine For Cutting Sapphire/Silicon/Quartz Stone Materials
The multi-function multi-wire saw represents cutting-edge technology in modern precision manufacturing. It adopts an innovative cutting method of "workpiece swinging down while the diamond wire remains stationary", combined with a fully servo-driven motor system and stable tension control, ensuring extremely high operational accuracy and stability. Its diamond wire speed can reach up to 1000 m/min (for cutting), while the wiring and sharpening speed can achieve 800 m/min. With a broad cutting thickness range (0.4 mm – 10 mm), it simultaneously meets the demands of high-precision slicing and efficient edge preparation.
This equipment is versatile and widely suitable for small-to-medium-sized and ultra-thin cutting tasks of hard and brittle materials such as photovoltaic materials (e.g., monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon), sapphire, precision ceramics, precious metals (e.g., special alloys), and quartz stone. It is particularly adept at processing high-value, high-hardness materials.

Multi-Function Multi-Wire Saw Machine Operating Principle
| Working Stage | Working Principle |
| Wire Mesh Formation | The diamond wire is unwound from the pay-off reel, passes through a series of guide wheels, and then is taken up by the take-up reel, thus forming a wire mesh composed of diamond wires in the cutting area. |
| Workpiece Feeding and Cutting | During the cutting process, the workpiece (the material to be cut) gradually approaches and is cut by the wire mesh according to the preset cutting path and feeding speed. |
| Swinging Motion (for some models) | Some multi - function multi - wire saws have a workpiece swinging function, that is, the workpiece makes a regular swing during the cutting process. |
| Tension Control | During the cutting process, the tension of the diamond wire is monitored and adjusted in real time through the tension control system to keep it within a stable range. |
| Cooling and Lubrication | During the cutting process, a coolant is used to cool and lubricate the cutting area. |
