Technical Facilities

Available technical equipment
Measurement of rough diamonds
Measurement of rough diamonds
One of the systems is capable of measuring rough or partially processed diamonds. The 3D-reconstruction is based on shadow images. To measure cavities or inclusions there is a microscope build in.
Measurement of polished diamonds
Measurement of polished diamonds
Several instruments are available for measurement on polished diamonds. The latest development, Reflex, gives very accurate results, beyond the capabilities of current commercial scanners.
Microscopy
Microscopy
For diamond inspection the industry standard, D-Scope, is used. Besides specific setups for diamond there are also high precision scientific microscopes available.
Spectroscopy
Spectroscopy
Optical spectroscopy is the preferred technique for the characterization of diamonds and gemstones because of its non-destructive nature. Optical spectroscopy illuminates a diamond with light in the optical part of the spectrum and analyses the light after interaction with the diamond
Modelling
Modelling
The diamond sector is applying three-dimensional models already for a long time. Castings of rough diamonds are used as a tool for process decision-making. The three-dimensional models of rough and cut stones are also very efficient for educational purposes.
Mechanical processing
Modelling
 CNC milling machines, lathes, sawing machines and so on are at your disposal. All machines are used in our prototyping workshop. A CAD/CAM setup gives the opportunity to minimize the time between design and manufacturing.
