diamond wire

Diamond wire consists of a steel cable on which diamond rings or beads are placed.

It is used with machines that have pulleys covered with special rubber; They rotate the wire for cutting large thicknesses of concrete, reinforced and/or prestressed concrete, pieces of steel, aluminum, etc. that cannot be cut by other methods.

This technique has been inherited from granite and marble quarries, whose large cutting fronts have been carried out for many years with this technique.

Today the cutting of bridges and other large-volume structures are being carried out, among other complementary methods, with diamond wire.
