SOM4-1000D Large-Scale Multi-Wire Saw – Industrial 1000mm Ingot Slicing Machine
The SOM4-1000D is Vimfun’s largest and most powerful multi-wire saw, designed for maximum-throughput ingot slicing at industrial scale. With a 4-axis dual-station design, 1000×200mm per-station workpiece capacity, and an 85kW main drive, it is the definitive choice for high-volume silicon wafer production and large-format semiconductor material processing.
Key Features
- 🔹 1000mm Maximum Ingot Length: Our largest workpiece capacity — handles full-length silicon ingots and oversized crystal blocks
- 🔹 85kW Main Drive Motor: The most powerful in the SOM series — maintains constant wire speed through the densest materials
- 🔹 Dual-Board Design: Two 1000×200mm stations process ingots simultaneously for maximum throughput per floor space
- 🔹 Widest Slice Range: 1.5–25mm covers wafer production, thick slab cutting, and squaring operations
- 🔹 Best for High-Volume Single Product: Optimized for mass production of a single wafer specification
- 🔹 Precision Rigid Frame: Large cast structure provides vibration damping even at maximum load
- 🔹 Fully CNC Programmable: Complete parameter control — wire speed, tension, feed rate, slicing program management

ROI ADVANTAGE OF SOM4-1000D AT SCALE
- More wafers per cycle: 1000mm ingot length means more wafers per cutting cycle than any other SOM model
- Dual-board operation: Two ingots cut simultaneously — effectively doubles production capacity
- Low energy per wafer: Despite 85kW peak power, average ≤30kW — energy cost per wafer is highly competitive at scale
- Minimal changeover: Long ingots reduce the number of load/unload cycles per production shift
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What is the maximum ingot diameter the SOM4-1000D can process?
The 1000mm refers to workpiece length; the maximum width is 200mm per station. Contact us with your ingot diameter specifications for a custom fixturing assessment.
Q: How does the SOM4-1000D compare to imported large-format wire saws?
The SOM4-1000D provides comparable technical specifications to European and Japanese large-format multi-wire saws at significantly lower cost, with full local support and shorter lead times.
Q: What is the delivery lead time?
90–120 days. We recommend contacting us early in your production planning process.
