Abrasion (mechanical)

Abrasion is the process of scuffing, scratching, wearing down, marring, or rubbing away.

See Wire saw and Abrasion (mechanical)

A bandsaw (also written band saw) is a power saw with a long, sharp blade consisting of a continuous band of toothed metal stretched between two or more wheels to cut material. Wire saw and bandsaw are cutting machines, Metalworking cutting tools and saws.

See Wire saw and Bandsaw

Computer-aided design

Computer-aided design (CAD) is the use of computers to aid in the creation, modification, analysis, or optimization of a design.

See Wire saw and Computer-aided design

Computer-aided manufacturing

Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) also known as computer-aided modeling or computer-aided machining is the use of software to control machine tools in the manufacturing of work pieces.

See Wire saw and Computer-aided manufacturing

Concrete

Concrete is a composite material composed of aggregate bonded together with a fluid cement that cures to a solid over time.

See Wire saw and Concrete

Cutting

Cutting is the separation or opening of a physical object, into two or more portions, through the application of an acutely directed force.

See Wire saw and Cutting

Diameter

In geometry, a diameter of a circle is any straight line segment that passes through the centre of the circle and whose endpoints lie on the circle.

See Wire saw and Diameter

Diamond

Diamond is a solid form of the element carbon with its atoms arranged in a crystal structure called diamond cubic.

See Wire saw and Diamond

A diamond tool is a cutting tool with diamond grains fixed on the functional parts of the tool via a bonding material or another method. Wire saw and diamond tool are Metalworking cutting tools.

See Wire saw and Diamond tool

Explosive

An explosive (or explosive material) is a reactive substance that contains a great amount of potential energy that can produce an explosion if released suddenly, usually accompanied by the production of light, heat, sound, and pressure.

See Wire saw and Explosive

Foam

Foams are materials formed by trapping pockets of gas in a liquid or solid.

See Wire saw and Foam

Foam rubber

Foam rubber (also known as cellular rubber, sponge rubber, or expanded rubber) refers to rubber that has been manufactured with a foaming agent to create an air-filled matrix structure.

See Wire saw and Foam rubber

Granite

Granite is a coarse-grained (phaneritic) intrusive igneous rock composed mostly of quartz, alkali feldspar, and plagioclase.

See Wire saw and Granite

Length

Length is a measure of distance.

See Wire saw and Length

Lubricant

A lubricant (sometimes shortened to lube) is a substance that helps to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact, which ultimately reduces the heat generated when the surfaces move.

See Wire saw and Lubricant

Machine shop

A machine shop or engineering workshop is a room, building, or company where machining, a form of subtractive manufacturing, is done.

See Wire saw and Machine shop

Marble

Marble is a metamorphic rock consisting of carbonate minerals (most commonly calcite (CaCO3) or dolomite (CaMg(CO3)2)) that have crystallized under the influence of heat and pressure.

See Wire saw and Marble

Mineral processing

Mineral processing is the process of separating commercially valuable minerals from their ores in the field of extractive metallurgy.

See Wire saw and Mineral processing

Mining

Mining is the extraction of valuable geological materials and minerals from the surface of the Earth.

See Wire saw and Mining

Monocrystalline silicon

Monocrystalline silicon, more often called single-crystal silicon, in short mono c-Si or mono-Si, is the base material for silicon-based discrete components and integrated circuits used in virtually all modern electronic equipment.

See Wire saw and Monocrystalline silicon

Numerical control

In machining, numerical control, also called computer numerical control (CNC), is the automated control of tools by means of a computer.

See Wire saw and Numerical control

Photovoltaics

Photovoltaics (PV) is the conversion of light into electricity using semiconducting materials that exhibit the photovoltaic effect, a phenomenon studied in physics, photochemistry, and electrochemistry.

See Wire saw and Photovoltaics

Plane (mathematics)

In mathematics, a plane is a two-dimensional space or flat surface that extends indefinitely.

See Wire saw and Plane (mathematics)

Polyethylene

Polyethylene or polythene (abbreviated PE; IUPAC name polyethene or poly(methylene)) is the most commonly produced plastic.

See Wire saw and Polyethylene

Polystyrene

Polystyrene (PS) is a synthetic polymer made from monomers of the aromatic hydrocarbon styrene.

See Wire saw and Polystyrene

Polyurethane

Polyurethane (often abbreviated PUR and PU) refers to a class of polymers composed of organic units joined by carbamate (urethane) links.

See Wire saw and Polyurethane

Quarry

A quarry is a type of open-pit mine in which dimension stone, rock, construction aggregate, riprap, sand, gravel, or slate is excavated from the ground.

See Wire saw and Quarry

Reciprocating saw

A reciprocating saw is a type of handheld, small, machine-powered saw, in which the cutting action is achieved through a push-and-pull ("reciprocating") or back-and-forth motion of the blade. Wire saw and reciprocating saw are saws.

See Wire saw and Reciprocating saw

Rope

A rope is a group of yarns, plies, fibres, or strands that are twisted or braided together into a larger and stronger form.

See Wire saw and Rope

Sand

Sand is a granular material composed of finely divided mineral particles.

See Wire saw and Sand

Saw

A saw is a tool consisting of a tough blade, wire, or chain with a hard toothed edge used to cut through material. Wire saw and saw are saws.

See Wire saw and Saw

Semiconductor

A semiconductor is a material that has an electrical conductivity value falling between that of a conductor, such as copper, and an insulator, such as glass.

See Wire saw and Semiconductor

Stained glass

Stained glass is coloured glass as a material or works created from it.

See Wire saw and Stained glass

Survivalism

Survivalism is a social movement of individuals or groups (called survivalists, doomsday preppers or preppers) who proactively prepare for emergencies, such as natural disasters, and other disasters causing disruption to social order (that is, civil disorder) caused by political or economic crises.
