 Here we see the diamond wire saw cutting (actually dicing) an anti-reflection coated bar into a series of microprisms.  The glass is mounted on a three axis goniometer (under plastic wrapping).  The wire saw blade is diamond coated, produces an 0.008" kerf and is coated with 50 micron diamond powder.  It produces a fine ground finish free from chipping and scratches.  It is slow but it saves downstream processing steps.
