| 1. | Modern techniques have evolved to include diamond-tipped wire saws and water jets.
|
| 2. | The wire saw may need a day to cut through the marble.
|
| 3. | These wire saws are large machines that use diamond-impregnated beads on a cable.
|
| 4. | The wire saw process develops surface roughness on the cut surface.
|
| 5. | One major advantage of wire saws is their smaller kerf, as compared to a blade.
|
| 6. | The surface quality in the wire saw process is important for the semiconductor and photovoltaic industries.
|
| 7. | A wire saw was then brought into the quarry to cut the block down to 56 tons.
|
| 8. | But a 6-foot-span stone shear, several huge wire saws, a 15-ton hoist, or a 25-ton stencil press?
|
| 9. | Wire saws are similar in principle to band saws or reciprocating saws, but they use lubricated by water or oil.
|
| 10. | The diamond wire saws used to cut the concrete were ideally suited to the job because of the minimal vibration emitted.
