It also <strong>reduces costs<\/strong> in both the cutting and polishing phases, optimizing consumption and enhancing overall productivity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>The beads thickness ranges from 4.3 to 8.3 mm in diameter.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In 2024, a new patent was filed for a completely innovative wire with a diameter of 4 mm, which can be further reduced.
