Description
Saw wire is mainly used for cutting polycrystalline silicon ingots into wafers which are applied in photovoltaic panels. A strong growing market requires the highest demands of saw wire technology. Diameters between 0,06 and 0,12 mm and tensile strength in the range of 4.000 to 5.000 N/mm² belongs to the group of high-carbon wires. The product requires a super clean steel, a consistent patenting and brass plating technology, and a special fine wire drawing process.
