Designed by Tianjing Equipment and distributed by Breton, Microwire is a next-generation ultra-thin diamond wire cutting machine, developed from the experience gained through more than 50 operational installations.

Microwire is available in two configurations:
- Microwire - Fix Block
featuring a wire descent system, for blocks up to 3,600 × 2,000 × 2,100 (H) mm;
- Microwire - Lift Block
featuring a block lifting system, for blocks up to 3,500 × 2,000 × 2,100 (H) mm.

The cut thickness varies depending on the pitch of the wire-driving rollers. With a standard 3.5 mm pitch and a 0.55 mm diameter wire, it is possible to cut commercial thicknesses of 20, 30, 40, and 50 mm.

The diamond wire is available in various diameters, with the most commonly used being 0.55 mm, which produces a cutting kerf of 0.6 mm.

On the optional side, the water filtration system extends the lifespan of diamond wires and protects the wire guide rollers by preventing the risk of wire slippage from the grooves. Developed in collaboration with Tianjing, the system is designed to treat water from existing recycling plants in the sawmill, ensuring a flow rate exceeding 900 liters per minute with a turbidity level (FTU) ≤ 20.

Both the machine and its accessories comply with safety standards and meet the requirements of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.

Technology highlights

Made of steel, it provides outstanding resistance to deformation under working loads and ensures high cutting precision.

/ 01

FEM-optimized load-bearing structure
Composed of two interconnected cast-iron structures, it provides excellent resistance to vibrations.

/ 02

Monobloc cutting quadrilateral
Dynamically balanced and driven by brushless servomotors, they provide greater resistance to deformation.

/ 03

Steel guide rollers
Protects the integrity of the diamond wire and provides continuity of the production process.

/ 04

Wire tension control system
Allows the operator to interact easily and efficiently with the machine and the block sawing process.

/ 05

Intuitive HMI interface
Included as an accessory, Breton Pulse is an intelligent monitoring and diagnostic software designed to provide real-time control of process performance. By continuously collecting data from sensors and CNC controls, the system enables analysis of the operating status and optimization of process efficiency.
