Although several serving performances of brazed diamond wire have been reported, seldom do these studies refer to its process characteristics. Sawing performances of a brazed diamond wire are investigated and compared with those of a sintered diamond wire on a wire saw machine. The surface topographies of beads selected from the two wires are micro observed before sawing. The sawing tests are carried out in constant feed rate feeding（CFF） and constant normal force feeding（CNFF）. In CFF test, sawing force, power, and the cut depths of positions on contact curve are measured. Then, coupled with the observations of beads topographies, sawing force and its ratio, relations of power against material removal rate, and contact curve linearity are compared and discussed. In CNFF test, the sawing rates of the two wires are investigated. The results indicate that the brazed wire performs with lower sawing force（less 16% of tangential force and 28% of normal force）, more energy efficiency（nearly one-fifth of sawing power is saved）, at a higher sawing rate （the rate is doubled） and with better contact curve linearity as compared with the sintered wire. This proposed research experimentally evaluates the sawing performances of brazed diamond wire from the aspect of process parameters, which can provide a basis for popularizing the brazed diamond wire.展开更多

The different contact states in the cutting process were analyzed by using the finite element method. It shows that the cutting stress is uniformly distributed along the direction of the workpiece width in the steady state. A mathematical equation of sawing trajectory was established by using the superposition principle and the cutting experiment of wire saw to calculate the cutting trajectory. The comparison of the theoretical trajectory with the calculated one indicates that the error is less than 15%. The research results provide a theoretic basis for optimization of the saw's cutting process parameters.展开更多

CFRP boards are very difficult to machine using common machining processes. Various machining artifacts, such as burrs and delamination, occur frequently when machining CFRP. Adequate techniques for machining CFRP have not yet been established. Recently, electroplated diamond wire machining technology has found use in cutting hard, brittle materials such as silicon and sapphire. In this study, we used an electroplated diamond wire saw to cut a CFRP workpiece. We quantified the cutting forces imposed on the workpiece and observed the surface state of the workpiece after cutting. We demonstrated that an electroplated diamond wire tool is suitable for the high-quality machining of CFRP boards.展开更多

This is due to the change in surface morphology of diamond wire cut wafers and the abundant presence of amorphous silicon content, which are introduced from wafer manufacturing industry during sawing of multi-crystalline wafers using ultra-thin diamond wires. The industry standard texturing process for multi-crystalline wafers cannot deliver a homogeneous etched silicon surface, thereby requiring an additive compound, which acts like a surfactant in the acidic etch bath to enhance the texturing quality on diamond wire cut wafers. Black silicon wafers on the other hand require completely a different process chemistry and are normally textured using a metal catalyst assisted etching technique or by plasma reactive ion etching technique. In this paper, various challenges associated with cell processing steps using diamond wire cut and black silicon wafers along with cell electrical results using each of these wafer types are discussed.展开更多

CBN-550 of Diamond Innovations) can cut faster and they last longer than mono grits(e.g.Borazon(?) CBN-500). Polygrits of alumina(e.g.Cubitron(?) of 3M) also out perform by far glassy grits(e.g.white alumina).For diamond superabrasives,micron polygrits formed by shock waves may polish as fast as mono grits of the same size,but without causing as much scratches due to the presence of smaller sintered grains.The improved performance of poly grits is attributed to their ability to micro chipping that renews the sharp cutting corners from time to time.By contrast,mono grits tend to round off at low cutting force or macro fracture at high cutting force,so they may lose the cutting ability rapidly. For sawing granite with mesh sizes 40/50 or coarser,poly grits of diamond have not been available until recently.In this research,we have made polygrits in mini cube with sizes of 18/20,20/25,and 30/40.Turbo grinders and wire saws were made by brazing both mono grits and polygrits on steel substrates.Cutting performance on granite demonstrated that grinding speed was faster with turbo grinder,and the surface finish was smoother with wire saw for poly grits than mono ones. Polygrits and mono grits of diamond were mixed for comparison(upper left).Polygrits of mini cubes were brazed on the pearl of a wire saw(upper right).Mono diamond grits were brazed on a turbo grinder(bottom diagrams ).展开更多
