Which Brands Make the Best Multi-wire Saws?


Identifying the top brands that provide the best multi-wire saws requires understanding the complex needs of the semiconductor industry. As a leading manufacturing equipment supplier, our company specializes in offering high-caliber cutting solutions that cater to these exacting demands. Industry professionals seeking reliable semiconductor equipment know the importance of implementing the right tools for wire sawing and ensuring optimal precision and throughput, which we provide. Our selection of multi-wire saws includes the latest diamond wire technology, renowned for its durability and the ability to provide clean, consistent cuts.


Takatori Multi-Wire Saws


Takatori is the world leader in slicing challenging materials using diamond wire or abrasive slurry. GTI and Takatori worked together to develop the first applications to slice sapphire and silicon carbide using wire saws, and today, Takatori saws are industry standards for both materials. From the beginning, Takatori gave their machines a unique “rocking” function, improving slicing quality. Almost all of today’s Takatori saws still have this feature, and it opens the door not just to higher quality but auto-winding, speeding up the turn-around of the machine. GTI and Takatori have helped customers achieve lower costs and higher productivity by slicing various materials, including SiC, sapphire, GaN, glass, ceramics, GaAs, GaP, quartz, Si, and more.

  • Why go with Wire Sawing?

    Going from your source material, whether a carefully grown, single crystal ingot, a perfectly produced and slowly annealed piece of glass, or a sintered block of high-tech ceramic, to a thin wafer with perfect geometry and a beautiful surface finish means losing material at every processing step. Wire sawing significantly reduces material loss in multiple steps, saving time, money, and material. Wire sawing reduces kerf loss (material lost during slicing) from the beginning. Wire sawing saves substantial material compared to traditional OD saws, ID saws, and other slicing methods.

     

    Typical kerf loss is < 0.200mm / 0.008” for slurry and ~0.250mm / 0.010” for diamond wire and can be even lower. Reduced kerf loss means more wafers for a given length of material, quickly lowering costs and improving productivity. In addition to the benefits of lower kerf loss, wire sawing also typically results in higher-quality cuts. TTV, bow, and warp are minimized, as are surface roughness and sub-surface damage. The improved “as-sliced” quality means that subsequent steps (grinding, lapping, and polishing) can be minimized, saving time and material. 


    The reduced processing requirement even means that wafers can be sliced to a thinner initial thickness, saving more material and improving yields. Additionally, we understand the evolving needs of metal processing, which is why we also offer advanced metal cutting wire options that guarantee efficiency and performance for a variety of applications.
