OTS - Synova Announces Groundbreaking Automatic Cutting and Shaping Solution for Diamond Manufacturers
2019. September 26. 11:05
DUBAI, UAE, 26 September, 2019 (APA/OTS) - "DaVinci Diamond
Factory" - From rough to completely shaped diamond with 57 facets
in a single process - Synova, a Swiss-based provider of advanced
laser cutting systems, has developed an automatic cutting and
shaping system for diamonds. DaVinci substantially decreases
diamond production time by combining several manufacturing
processes into one machine. It also reduces polishing processes to
a final finishing step.
"DaVinci is the first automated laser full faceting solution
for round brilliants on the market. It will revolutionize the
diamond manufacturing industry because the system covers virtually
the complete Rough-to-Polish process", says Dr Bernold
Richerzhagen, Synova Founder and CEO. "Several cost, skill and
labor-intensive steps in the polishing phase such as crown and
pavilion blocking, girdle bruting or recurrent quality checks
become redundant", adds Richerzhagen.
As a result, manufacturing capacities can be increased or
flexibly adapted according to seasonal demand and location.
Customers gain a higher and more predictable polished yield through
greater accuracies and improved stone symmetries. Unlike when
polishing customers also see additional value by reusing diamond
chips that are cut off from rough stones during laser cutting.
The heart of the DaVinci system is Synova's DCS 50, a highly
accurate and well-established laser machine based on the advanced
Laser MicroJet technology. The 5-axis CNC machine integrates
Synova's patented breakthrough detection that recognizes when a cut
is finished and automatically initiates facet changing.
The water jet guided Laser MicroJet cools the diamond surface
during laser ablation and significantly reduces the risk of rough
diamond cracking, especially with stress stones. The water jet
maintains the laser's focus creating a cylindrical laser beam
resulting in perfectly parallel walls and tight kerf widths.
De Beers, a minority shareholder, has made diamond product
available for some of the machine testing.
Synova owns all patents of the DaVinci solution and related
brands.
