What is a diamond wire saw?

Before we go further into the various cutting applications of a diamond wire saw, let’s take a brief look at how it works.

 

Diamond wire saws are known for cutting materials such as stone, masonry, reinforced concrete, rebar and steel embedded parts. It is one of the most precise cutting processes available today. A jigsaw is an excellent way to cut steel pipe; it can do a lot for a water utility.

 

Marble and Granite Cutting

Marble is a metamorphic stone formed from calcite or dolomite. It is formed by heating and compressing limestone or dolomite. Granite is a coarse-grit, light-colored igneous rock containing quartz, feldspar, and mica. It is the most widespread rock type on Earth.

 

concrete cutting

Concrete cutting is the technique of cutting or shaping concrete using a diamond wire saw. This is a common method for cutting large concrete structures such as bridge decks, highway aprons and abutments.

 

Concrete cutting systems are cutting and forming equipment designed for use in industrial scale environments. The arrangement of pulleys can be changed to rectangular, circular or any other open form. Some lubricant or coolant must be used during this step because the temperature of the concrete cutting system must be controlled. To prevent overheating, use a steady source of water.

 

Application of diamond wire saw

There is no end to what a diamond wire saw can accomplish in stone applications. They cut through granite with ease.

 

Diamond wire is wrapped around the thing to be covered and attached to multiple pulleys, allowing the operator to cut to any depth or form structures.

 

The use of diamond wire saw

Diamond wire saws have been around for a while and were originally used in quarries to cut stone. On the other hand, these exhibitions have become an inevitable part of the construction industry. Diamond wire saws are effective when all other cutting methods fail because the structure that must be cut is too large or limited by site conditions.

 

Benefits of Diamond Wire Saws

Diamond wire sawing is a very fast concrete cutting technique.

It can be used for cutting in any direction, including curves and circles.

It's a gentle, environmentally friendly solution that doesn't leave any harmful residue on surfaces. It doesn't generate the same amount of dust as other methods of cutting concrete.

The incision is clear, clean and painless. No broken edges.

From the moment the blade enters the wood to the moment it leaves, it leaves little to no waste.

 

Jigsaws are one method when cutting concrete that is particularly thick or complex in shape. It can also be used to cut neatly with existing walls. Jigsaws are a great option for specific cutting needs where previously only needle drills could be used.

 

Diamond wire EDM is ideal where access is restricted, such as bridge decks where greater depth and faster cutting speeds are required, or for cutting beams and columns. Diamond wire saws offer the greatest degree of freedom of cutting (or the "section" that must be cut), as there are few, if any, restrictions on the depth and size of the cut (or the "section" that needs to be cut).
