Abstract
A cover for covering a processing chamber, in which a plurality of grooved rollers of a wire saw is arranged, is composed of an outside cover and an inner cover. The outside cover covers the plurality of grooved rollers, and the inner cover covers an ingot. This prevents slurry and cutting chips from scattering to the outside of the wire saw while it is slicing the ingot. When the ingot is attached and detached, a winch opens the outside cover and a cylinder apparatus opens the inner cover to expose the processing chamber.
