Put (" OUT ") and with offer and/or change data, without there being the time loss of amendment sensing station
(such as, if the diameter of line guide cylinder 10 is smaller or greater: when more thread-changing guide cylinder 10, it may be determined that
The diameter of line guide cylinder 10).Such as, when sensor detects and such as there is line or gauze, arrive line
Or the ad-hoc location of gauze.Arrive the length of gauze at this hour, and wire sawing apparatus can be automatically stopped.This
Situation can be similar for wire guider: if there is new wire guider, then diameter is bigger.Use
Wire guider (can be for example and again slot) less.Sensor can be configured to measure and line or gauze
The distance of (there is not bow during structure gauze).
According to can with its described in other embodiments combination some embodiments, line monitoring system 200, and
And especially at least one sensor, wire jumper detection can be arranged to.Such as, line monitoring system 200,
And especially at least one sensor, can be arranged to detect the jumper location 240 on gauze 20.?
In some embodiments, at least one sensor can at jumper location 240 or above mobile two or more times.
At least one sensor can collect data relevant to jumper location 240 (such as, each encoder arrive or
During indicating jumper wire position 240).Such as, line monitoring system 200 can provide wire jumper to elapse the most in time to drill
The curve (software development) become and/or the 3D shape of gauze 20.Line monitoring according to the embodiment described
System 200 can especially be configured to detect wire jumper and wire jumper develops, thus provides the Monitoring Performance of improvement.
According to a further aspect in the invention, it is provided that a kind of wire sawing apparatus.Wire sawing apparatus includes line monitoring system.
Can be according to embodiment described herein the described line monitoring system of configuration.
Fig. 5 illustrates according to embodiment described herein method 300 flow process for monitoring the line in wire sawing apparatus
Figure.
During the operation that method 300 is included in wire sawing apparatus, running fix is in the line of adjacent threads saw device or line
At least one sensor of net is with detection line bow and/or wire jumper (square frame 310).In block 320, method
300 determine line bow or line bow height and/or whether there is wire jumper.When determining that bow or bow height are less than a threshold value
And/or when there is not wire jumper, cutting technique proceeds.When determine bow or bow height higher than described threshold value and/
Or when there is wire jumper, stop cutting technique and/or notify operator.
According to some embodiments, sensor moves and includes periodically moving between the first location and the second location
Sensor, in region between the first location and the second location, at least some of location of its center line.First
Position and the second position can correspond respectively to marginal portion or the end section of gauze.
In some implementations, described method includes determining that whether bow is beyond bending threshold value and/or whether there is wire jumper.
When determining that bow, beyond when bending threshold value and/or there is wire jumper, performs following at least one step: stop line saw device
Operation, increases the translational speed of line；Reduce the speed of table；Amendment or change mobile working Taiwan investment material (example
As, against line or the work speed of gauze or the speed of table), revise or change line circulation, revise or change
Modified line tension force, revises or changes coolant flow, and revise or change coolant pressure.Bow threshold value can be corresponding
Predetermined value in bow height.One value of definition when bow threshold value can be to bend too high.Bow highly can be defined as
Difference in cut direction or distance between online or the arcuate state of gauze and non-arcuate state.
Embodiments of the invention can detect line bow and can prevent because line bow becomes broken string that is too high and that cause.Can subtract
Avoid the reduction of cut quality and/or wafer quality less or even.Embodiments of the invention also can detect on gauze
Wire jumper.The present invention can provide whole net or the extensive information of net bow, and cannot when using fixing sensor
Obtain these information.By using movable sensor, it is possible to decrease the cost relevant to line monitoring system is (such as,
Production cost and/or maintenance cost).
Although foregoing is for embodiment described herein, but can be without departing from elemental range of the present invention
In the case of design other and further embodiment, and the scope of the present invention is by right above
