For a long time, Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) wire cutting seemed to be the only option. But it came with significant drawbacks:
3D metal printing is advancing cutting-edge sectors like aerospace, medical devices, and automotive manufacturing at an unprecedented pace. We marvel at its "creating something out of nothing" magic and its powerful ability to produce complex structural components. However, once a high-value metal part is printed and firmly attached to the build substrate, the real challenge begins: How to remove it quickly, non-destructively, and cost-effectively?
For a long time, Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) wire cutting seemed to be the only option. But it came with significant drawbacks:
Long waiting times: Cutting a single part often took several hours, or even more than a dozen hours.
High costs: Time consumption, equipment occupancy, and consumable expenses remained persistently high.
Bottlenecked production capacity: While printers operated 24/7, a long queue formed at the cutting station. No matter how efficient the printing process was, this "last mile" became a major drag on overall productivity!
01 The Game Changer Arrives
Wuxi Da Vinci’s Tungsten Wire Loop Cutting Technology
Must we silently endure this efficiency bottleneck? Now, a game changer has emerged!
From the heart of the Yangtze River Delta manufacturing hub, Wuxi Da Vinci New Materials Co., Ltd. has introduced its revolutionary tungsten wire loop cutting technology, officially declaring war on this industry-wide challenge! The company specializes in loop wire cutting machines and consumables, aiming to liberate productivity with absolute efficiency.
Data speaks louder than words:
Based on detailed testing across different materials and sizes, the results are impressive:
A 400×300mm titanium alloy substrate can be cut in just 40–60 minutes, while a same-size high-temperature alloy substrate takes 60–90 minutes.
Larger titanium alloy substrates can be cut in 45–150 minutes, and high-temperature alloy substrates of the same size in just 45–180 minutes.
These numbers represent not just incremental improvement but a qualitative leap in manufacturing efficiency.
Overwhelming Efficiency Advantage:
A batch cutting job that traditionally required 26 hours with EDM now takes only 0.75 hours (45 minutes) with Da Vinci’s tungsten wire loop cutting—an efficiency increase of over 30 times!
Exponential Capacity Growth:
In the same operational timeframe, where traditional methods could complete only 0.8 batches per day, tungsten wire loop cutting can finish nearly 28 batches—an exponential increase in daily output!
What does this comparison mean?
Imagine what used to take an entire workday (26 hours) can now be accomplished in under an hour (45 minutes) with Da Vinci’s loop cutting technology. The production capacity that once required a full day of waiting is now released in just one hour!
This is not merely a technical upgrade—it’s a complete reshaping of the production process.
02 More Than Just Speed
One Investment, Multiple Returns
Choosing Da Vinci doesn’t just mean getting fast results—it also brings additional advantages:
Lower Costs & Eco-Friendliness:
Uses pure water as the cooling medium—low cost, pollution-free, and a strong boost for your ESG reporting.
Superior Quality:
A purely physical cutting process ensures no excessive heat, unchanged metallography, and unaltered shapes, guaranteeing excellent end-product quality.
Significant Energy Savings:
Compared to traditional EDM, which requires continuous high-energy discharge, physical cutting drastically reduces energy consumption. This aligns with China’s "Dual Carbon" goals, delivering true cost reduction and efficiency improvement.
To meet diverse customer needs, Da Vinci offers a powerful product portfolio:
The QG4030, suitable for small to medium-sized substrates, equipped with automatic detection and leveling functions.
The heavy-duty QG8080, compatible with large substrates up to 850mm.
Da Vinci provides mature and reliable equipment solutions, backed by comprehensive after-sales service and training support.
It’s time to break through the bottleneck and let your 3D printing business advance at full speed!
If you’re struggling with the inefficiency of EDM cutting, if you’re eager to elevate your production capacity to a whole new level—then Wuxi Da Vinci offers you the best solution!
