Large-capacity quarry wire saw with permanent-magnet drive
The 75kW permanent-magnet motor wire saw is the highest-power machine in our quarry wire saw range, built for continuous block extraction in hard stone. Permanent-magnet drive holds torque across the full speed range, so cutting speed stays stable as the diamond wire loads up instead of falling away in the cut.
This is the highest-power of our six wire saw classes. The 75kW permanent-magnet drive is the highest-power class in our range, intended for the hardest and largest blocks. Permanent-magnet motors hold torque across the speed range, which keeps cutting speed stable as the wire loads up.
PM motors deliver high torque from low speed and hold it under load. In practice this means a more constant cutting rate through a long cut and less risk of the wire stalling and polishing the cut instead of cutting it.
A 75kW machine can use a more aggressive wire specification than a low-power machine. If you buy a fast wire for a low-power machine you lose the benefit; if you put a conservative wire on a 75kW machine you leave capacity unused. We size the two together.
Values we can state from real applications, with the basis for each one.

One row per attribute. A cell reading “Not stated” has no verified figure behind it — we confirm it against your job rather than assume a value. Machine dimensions, weight, wire speed and rail configuration are available on request.
Every specification above is confirmed against your material, machine and site conditions before an order is placed.
We specify against the job rather than the catalog. These are the facts that decide the answer for anything in Quarry Equipment.
This product is specified as part of a set. These are the wire families and product groups it is normally combined with — final selection depends on the material, the machine and the site conditions.
Actual applications with the equipment, tooling and working conditions recorded.

Cutting speed 8–10 m²/hour. Wire lifetime 20–24 m² per meter. Stable cutting with no wire breaks recorded, and measurably reduced downtime.

All 18 wire saw machines still in service, including the original unit. A partnership that has run from the early Keentool days through to the current

Higher output per shift, with wire life stable enough to plan production around rather than react to.
How this equipment and tooling performs in real quarry and construction conditions.
Send the material, the machine and the working conditions. We will come back with a specification that suits the job — and say plainly where a limit exists.
