摘要:
The present invention provides a wire saw which cuts a workpiece using a cutting wire and is capable of adjusting wire tension with high responsiveness. The wire saw includes first and second workpiece cutting units 1A and 1B. Each of the workpiece cutting units 1A and 1B includes a pair of guide rollers 10a and 10b around which a wire W is wound to form a workpiece-cutting wire group. The wire saw further includes a tension detector 18 which detects tension in the wire W between the workpiece cutting units 1A and 1B, and a control device 50. The control device 50 changes a rotational speed of the guide rollers 10a and 10b of at least one of the workpiece cutting units based on the tension detected by the tension detector 18 so as to keep the tension within an acceptable range.

A detecting device for use in a slicing apparatus which includes a blade member having an internal cutting edge in the form of a circle, a rotating driver for rotating the blade member about a center of the circle of the internal cutting edge, and a radial movement driver for producing a relative movement between the blade member and a work in a radial direction of the blade member so that an end portion of the work is cut into a piece by the internal cutting edge of the blade member, the detecting device being adapted for detecting a displacement of the blade member, includes: a detector which is disposed at a position being spaced away from the blade member and the work and allowing the piece in the process of being cut to intervene between the detector and the blade member and being operable to detect a distance to a specified position of the blade member; and a corrector which is operable to eliminate an influence to the distance detection which is caused by the intervention of the piece.

The present invention provides a method of cutting a workpiece efficiently with high accuracy by utilizing tension adjusters to approximate tension in a wire in a wire saw to a predetermined target tension while effectively reducing only tension in a winder-side wire. The method comprises a forward-driven cutting step of cutting a workpiece while moving a wire forward, a first switching step of reversing a driving direction of the wire, a backward-driven cutting step of cutting the workpiece while moving the wire backward, and a second switching step of reversing a driving direction of the wire and returning to the forward-driven cutting step, the steps being repeated in this order. In both switching steps, only tension in a winder-side wire is reduced by tension manipulators. A reduction in target wire tension therefor is performed after completion of deceleration of the wire in each switching step.

An apparatus for slicing a work includes: a blade member rotating device which rotates a blade member having an internal circular cutting edge; a radial moving device which produces a relative movement between the blade member and a work in a radial direction of the blade member to cut an end portion of the work; an axial moving device which produces a relative movement between the blade member and the work in an axial direction of the blade member; a displacement detector which detects an axial displacement of an inner portion of the rotating blade member; a rotational controller which controls the rotational speed of the blade member based on a detected axial displacement to reduce the axial displacement; and an axial movement controller which controls the axial relative movement between the blade member and the work based on the detected axial displacement so that an actual cutting position of the internal cutting edge with respect to the work is at a predetermined cutting reference position.

In the wafer producing apparatus of this invention, wafers each obtained by a slicing operation of a plurality of slicing devices are transported to a common finishing device by a transport device for chamfering. When the wafer is transferred to the transport device, an identification signal for identifying the slicing device by which the wafer is obtained is stored in an identification signal storage device. When the wafer is transferred from the transport device to the finishing device, the identification signal stored in the identification signal storage device is transmitted on a finish control device. Upon completion of the chamfering operation to the wafer by the finishing device, the finish control device controls the finishing device to allow the wafer to be stored in one of a plurality of wafer storage cassettes corresponding to the inputted identification signal. Thereby, even in a case where a working speed of the working device for slicing out a wafer from an ingot differs greatly from a working speed of the finishing device for chamfering the wafer, the wafer producing apparatus can be operated with a high proficiency and wafers processed by the common finishing device can be accurately stored in the proper wafer storage portion.

A method and device are adapted for detecting and controlling the flexure of a flat ring blade member of a slicing machine in which a workpiece is placed in the blade member, and a relative movement is rendered between the blade member being rotated and a workpiece in a radial direction of the blade member to produce a wafer of the workpiece. An axial load acting between the workpiece and the blade member is detected. A flexure amount of the blade member is calculated on the basis of the axial load detected. The flexure of the blade member is corrected on the basis of the flexure amount calculated.
