THE CUTTING PRINCIPLE OF THE WELL PRECISION DIAMOND WIRE SAW
All WELL diamond wire saws use a drum with precision threaded grooves machined into the surface to hold the diamond wire in place. The 10-metre-long diamond wire is attached and wound on the drum by a winding device, mounted on a lead screw of the same size as the drum and connected to a motor that rotates in both directions. A loop in the wire is attached to a tensioner pulley to maintain the exact perpendicularity of the cut while moving over the sample. Depending on the model of saw used, the sample can be cut from the inside out or from the outside in. The constant force (feed speed) of the wire against the sample is obtained by gravity. The saw motor housing is guided by precision guides on ball bearings. In addition to the possibility of adjusting the force of the wire, its speed is also adjustable via a continuously variable potentiometer.
