When used in the context of HSIC, the term “adiabatic” (without any influence of heat) can be easily misinterpreted. As a general rule, “adiabatic cutting” refers to chipless cutting at high speed. And since the cutting time is extremely short, the material hardly has time to heat up in the cutting zone. This effectively prevents deformation or solidification. The benefit: smooth and level cutting surfaces almost without deformation or solidification on the workpiece edges Thanks to high cutting speeds, the components show much less signs of deformation, no relevant structural changes, as well as an even hardness distribution.

Adiabatic cutting is also the perfect choice for large annual quantities in the 500,000 to 500 million range. The advantages of this chipless and cooling lubricant-free process lie in its short cycle times (up to 800 parts per minute). This cutting technology is suitable for machining almost all types of steel, including high-alloy and high-strength variants. Dazu zählen auch hochlegierte und hochfeste Varianten. Various profile and circular materials can be used as basic materials.
