The purpose of SOLID is to do 3D-modelling of diamond by laser to
achieve a highly accurate result with minimal material loss and
processing risk. SOLID is an acronym for Scanner, Optimizer and
Laser Integrated Device.
WTOCD developed a new bruting principle whereby processing is
accomplished in a constant optimal working condition without the
use of electrolysis and its disadvantages.
To visualize ‘zoetheid’, WTOCD developed a device to evaluate facets of
stones in the tang. Out of this a second tool originated to grade
finished stones on the D-Scope microscope.
Screening of colourless and near-colourless polished diamonds to select stones
that might be synthetic or colour enhanced.
In a issue of Antwerp Facets Magazine (April 2007), the
properties of Chameleon type diamonds were discussed. The "C-fluo"
viewer allows selecting potential Chameleon type diamonds in a safe way.
After machining diamond with laser, a black layer covers the machined surface.
This layer makes it difficult to examine the internal features and the color of the stone.
The Micro Blaster safely removes the layer.
