Diamond Wire Sawing
Diamond wire sawing is a process that uses diamond-impregnated wire to cut through large areas of concrete and other reinforced materials such as metal, stone, and asphalt.
This method is often used in demolition projects where traditional methods, such as hydraulic breakers, would be ineffective, too risky or too noisy.
The technique uses a diamond-impregnated wire which is fed through a series of pulleys to form a cut where other methods are not practicable. Diamond wire sawing is the perfect technique where there is a need to remove considerable areas of heavily reinforced concrete in complex situations where there is limited access.
Benefits of diamond wire sawing
Diamond wire-sawing is a versatile and effective way to cut through even the most reinforced of materials, with excellent performance. Other benefits include:
- Reduced noise levels: the diamond wire produces much less noise than traditional methods such as hydraulic breakers, perfect for use in built-up areas or projects where noise disturbance needs to be kept to a minimum.
- No secondary vibration: diamond wire sawing does not produce the same level of vibration as hydraulic breakers, making it ideal for use in sensitive areas.
- Portability: diamond wire saws are small and portable, meaning they can be used in a variety of different locations.
- Reduced dust and water consumption: diamond wire sawing uses significantly less water than other methods, making it more environmentally friendly. The water that we do use keeps the wire cool but also reduces the dust.
- Fume-free: diamond wire-sawing is a fume-free method of cutting through dense masonry, which aligns with our commitment to perform deconstruction in a sustainable and eco-friendly way.
