What’s the Best Way to Cut PU Insulation Materials Without Generating Dust?
Introduction: Clean Cutting Is No Longer Optional In the production of Cut PU insulation materials, especially thermal bricks and foam panels, dust generation is a major concern. Traditional cutting methods often produce fine polyurethane particles, which are difficult to capture, harmful to worker health, and detrimental to downstream product quality. As industries move toward cleaner and greener manufacturing, manufacturers are looking for cutting technologies that minimize airborne contaminants while improving precision and efficiency. This is where diamond wire cutting technology, particularly with endless diamond wire saws, brings a significant advantage. The Dust Problem in PU Insulation Processing PU (polyurethane) materials are thermosetting foams—rigid, lightweight, but prone to thermal degradation and micro-fragmentation during cutting. Common issues with conventional cutting methods include: Why Endless Diamond Wire Saws Enable Dust-Free PU Cutting Endless diamond wire saws operate using a non-impact, low-friction grinding motion that slices through PU materials with minimal disturbance to the
