The aim of this study is to optimize stone materials cutting by diamond wire cutter. Attention is focused on the study of the cutting process through sintered diamond-encrusted beads used to work granite. This study is aimed at understanding the interaction between the bead and the material; in detail, experimental equipment was designed to test individual diamond-coated beads, and it was installed on a numerical-control work center. This equipment made it possible to test an individual bead and, in particular, to determine its cutting power and its main force components on the basis of various process parameters, such as cutting velocity (V t) and feed velocity (V a). The test runs also made it possible to determine wear on each bead on the basis of process parameters. This is a necessary first step to be able, in the future, to optimize the tool and the cutting process.
