Method for cutting rare earth alloy, method for manufacturing rare earth alloy plates and method for manufacturing rare earth alloy magnets using wire saw, and voice coil motor

摘要

A method for cutting a rare earth alloy according to the present invention includes the steps of: a) supplying slurry containing abrasive grains onto a wire; and b) machining the rare earth alloy with the abrasive grains, interposed between the wire and the rare earth alloy, by running and pressing the wire against the rare earth alloy. The slurry contains, as a main component, oil in which the abrasive grains are dispersed, and the viscosity of the slurry at 25° C. is in the range from 92 to 175 mPa.sec.
