1mm/s is too fast for sapphire. Typically we use 0.1 or 0.2 mm/s and 20k RPM. Blade thickness should be 0.3 mm ( no thinner than 0.2 mm). Please also check the disco service, and they usually will give you very good suggestions.

It seems the wafer is too hard that I get into trouble of frequently breaking the dicing blade. I have tried lowing the spin speed to 12000rpm, the cutting speed to 1mm/s, and only cut into half of the wafer (230μm) but still got the blade broken. I am wondering if you have any good suggestions on sapphire wafer dicing.
