Abstract
Section titled āAbstractā<p>Experimental study on slicing of sapphire with fixed<br>\nabrasive diamond wire saw was conducted in this paper. The process<br>\nparameters were optimized through orthogonal experiment of three<br>\nfactors and four levels. The effects of wire speed, feed speed and<br>\ntension pressure on the surface roughness were analyzed. Surface<br>\nroughness in cutting direction and feed direction were both detected.<br>\nThe results show that feed speed plays the most significant role on the<br>\nsurface roughness of sliced sapphire followed by wire speed and<br>\ntension pressure. The optimized process parameters are as follows:<br>\nwire speed 1.9 m/s, feed speed 0.187 mm/min and tension pressure<br>\n0.18 MPa. In the end, the results were verified by analysis of variance.</p>
