Abstract Wire saw technology is a method that works great in industrial applications - it is a dominant method in the production of silicon wafers. But almost all kinds of brittle materials (ceramics, rocks, meteorite and minerals or wood) can be cut using wire saw. Question, this article will try to answer is whether this is also applicable to magnesion alloys? Article presents selected problems from an area of abrasive treatment of magnesium alloys. This includes effects of research, concerning possibilities of application of abrasive diamond wire in the process of cutting magnesium alloys AM60 and AZ91 as well as results concerning surface quality obtained after cutting with the abrasive diamond wire German Company HK Präzisionstechnik.
