Which cutting parameter is most important?
There is no single universal parameter. Wire speed affects abrasive contact and heat, feed controls cutting load, and tension controls path stability and breakage risk.
Are literature parameter values universal?
No. Values such as 20-40 m/s wire speed or 60-100 N tension appear in certain studies, but they belong to specific machines, wires, materials, and test conditions.
How should a user begin parameter selection?
Start conservatively, define the quality target, then adjust one variable at a time while recording cutting force, kerf, edge quality, surface roughness, wire wear, and cutting time.
