Introduction

Since the introduction of EOS bruting machines, round stones are no longer girdled by means of traditional machines or procedures. In recent years, the demands put on the cut quality became increasingly higher, not only for round cuts but also for fancies. A perfect girdle is the very foundation of a well cut stone. Problems like bearding, small chips or breakage towards the upper or lower side of the stone, were an issue for round stones. Until now, symmetry and accurate aspect ratio are some of the main problems for fancy shapes. Slight imperfections are simply no longer tolerated in the final appraisal of the diamond. So far, the industry has seen very few bruting machines for fancy shapes being introduced on the market. The introduction of laser-shaping was a big step forward. However, a laser does not offer the appropriate solution for the final girdle geometry. Therefore, to improve the performance of the fancy-bruting, HRD Antwerp and WTOCD have developed the EOS Fancy, which brings together the EOS-technology and a state of the art motion controller.

EOS Fancy currently confines the deviation on the symmetry to zero. All fancy shapes can be made from round fancies to square fancies, and there is no danger of breakage of points on e.g. pear-shapes or marquise.

Principle

EOS and EOS Fancy are automatic machines for bruting and girdling diamonds. The bruting cycle for round stones is extended to fancy shapes by linking the feed movement of the disc to the rotational position of the diamond. This extension allows the manufacturer to cut fancy shapes automatically without having to centre the stone.

The movements of the diamond disk are calculated in the machine software so that all convex shapes consisting of arcs and straight lines can be bruted. That means that Eos Fancy can brute not only curved shapes (round fancies) like pear, marquise, oval, cushion, but also straight shapes like emerald, princess, radiant. EOS Fancy is suitable for stones with a minimum width of 2 mm and a maximal length of 30 mm.

The culet of the diamond is positioned in the pot. The pin works in two ways: it exerts pressure on the table, to keep the stone fixed during the process. At the same time it aligns the table of the stone, so the girdle is perfectly perpendicular to the stone. Pots for fancies are specifically designed so that every fancy shape can be clamped in the pot. They come in different sizes, depending on the size of the stones. The pins are identical to the pins used for round ones. Both holders turn simultaneously at a low speed.

To brute the stone, a special composition of the diamond scaife is used. The scaife moves in cooling-liquid to cool down the bruted stone. The liquid contains some special conditioner; this facilitates the bruting process. The scaife consists of diamond grains combined with a binding agent. When the grains wear off during the bruiting process, the binding agent releases the worn off grains and lets new grains surface. The composition of the scaife guarantees an equilibrium between wear and productivity. And the cooling liquid too contributes to this process. During this process the diamond travels parallel to its rotation axis. The travel range can be set so the girdle surpasses the scaife at both sides, which guarantees an equal wear of the scaife. The plunjer is only being used to do a pre-centring of the stone. The centring of the diamond for bruting fancy shapes is completely taken over and executed by the machine software. EOS Fancy can be operated manually or through a rough scanner transfer. In the manual mode, the rough stone is measuerd by the measuring probe (see photo 3 & 4).The parameters setting and the position of a desired shape has to be introduced in the software via the screen menu.

In the transfer mode, the 3D models of the rough stone and the optimized fancy shape are exported from the planning software of the rough planner to Eos Fancy. The operator then only has to align the rough scanner model to the actual rough in the Eos Fancy machine. The fancy shape coupled to the 3D-representation of the rough is centred automatically and bruted after a simulation of the bruting process. Transfers from all major producers of rough scanners to Eos Fancy are supported.

The process is constantly monitored and is interrupted as soon as the wheel load is too high. Once the desired proportion is reached, the machine stops automatically and waits for further action of the operator. The whole process is controlled through the EOS control software on the PC. The machine guarantees a vibration-free cutting process. Eos Fancy was designed focussing on superb girdle quality, productivity, functionality and ergonomics.

The advantages of Eos Fancy

  • All convex shapes and therefore all fancy shapes can be bruted
  • Perfect symmetry of the girdle - the maximum symmetry deviation is limited to microns
  • Straight girdle
  • Very high accuracy of desired shape
  • No beard risk
  • No facets outbreak
  • Eliminates cleavages and holes without outbreak
  • Risk stones can be bruted
  • Complementary process to laser shaped stones
  • Facilitates polishers’ work

The transfer method from rough scanners and planners, the use of high technology and the ergonomic control will allow you to:

  • Reach a very high productivity; 1 person can operate more machines
  • Minimise the training period
  • Avoid damage to the stone while processing

AFFORDABLE HIGH QUALITY 3D PRINTING LANDS IN INDIA

Zlab3d is bringing the best mix of affordability and quality to India’s jewellery makers. Accustomed to expensive foreign machinery with sky-high ongoing costs, manufacturers smart in computer aided design (CAD) as part of their process, will appreciate the resolution capability, affordability, and free software provided in the B9 Creator digital light processing (DLP) stereolithography (SLA) printing system. With complete burn-out photopolymer resins, resolutions of 25.4 microns in z axis and 50 microns xy are routinely used to make very high quality cast pieces with the v1.1 printer. In release now is the v1.2 printer, capable of 30 microns xy and even finer z resolutions but many jewellery makers find that even the 31.75 micron setting is a great balance of printing time and fine quality.

B9Creator uses free software in Windows, Mac, and Linux, to create layouts, add supports, and run the printer. Many improvements are being incorporated into the newest version of the software. Mike Joyce, inventor of the B9Creator system, is an active participant in the online Forum where users daily share their experiences and learn from others. Inputs from the forums has been important in the improvements of the latest hardware and software. Consumables for the system include photopolymer resins at the best per-kg price point in the market and vat coatings. ZLab3d easily provides those to customers in India. Additional vats and build tables to custom, compatible, specifications are also available through ZLab3d, which is becoming the leader in providing this affordable solution to in-house rapid prototyping (RPT). ZLab3d has B9Creations photopolymer resins in stock for users of B9Creator (or other DLP printers) in India, and is one of only 12 worldwide B9Creator printer distributors.

B9Creator, INDIA'S AFFORDABLE HD SLA 3D PRINTING MACHINE

In the lead up to the IGJME Show in Surat end of November, much interest is being focused on in-house 3D printing for manufacturers. Whether testing ideas, producing masters, or patterns for direct casting, B9Creator from the USA is enabling Indian jewellers to keep their designs on premises and avoid delays and damages in transport. ZLab3d is India's first B9Creations resin dealer, and one of only 12 worldwide printer distributors. Recent patent expirations have allowed a flood of worldwide creativity and business ideas in the Rapid Prototyping (RPT) arena. Manufacturers are taking advantage of this to take control of their printing and save scarce resources by investigating solutions like B9Creator. A new concept for Indian jewellery manufacturers, B9Creator is a Do It Yourself (DIY) style machine. You own it, you assemble it and modify it the way you want: tailor it to your needs, change the software code, create your own upgrades. The software to layout, slice, and print is free and open-source. Investigate it before buying a printer! Support is free, too, via 24/7 worldwide online Forum. Learn by reading, learn by participating in Topic conversations, share your successes, compliment others. The two resins offered for use with B9Creator are Red for resolutions thicker than 50μm z, and Cherry for 50μm and thinner. Jewellers worldwide are finding that 30μm xy and z axes produces a good balance of quality and printing time. The B9Creator can slice as thin as 5μm, but so thin is not necessary for most jewellery work. Users can mix these, use these in other Stereolithography (SLA) printers or use other resins in B9Creator.

Lots of initials accompany digital progress, it seems!

Launched in India by ZLab3d, the B9Creator is the affordable:

  • Do It Yourself (DIY)
  • Digital Light Processing (DLP)
  • Stereolithography (SLA)
  • Rapid Prototyping (RPT) machine for
  • Computer Aided Manufacturing output ("CAMs")

B9Creator's new approach to machinery empowers Indian jewellery makers to assemble and modify the printer to their needs, there's no need to check with the manufacturer about trying new ideas. Users learn the B9Creator from fellow users on the free worldwide support Forum. Answers come from fellow users who have experienced what you're asking about, instead of a big corporation's support 'specialist' reading or copy/pasting from a manual. B9Creator software is free and the hardware is documented so users can make their own improvements. The DLP projector in B9Creator is High Definition (HD), 1920x1080 pixel resolution, allowing xy resolution in projected slices as fine as 30μm. It is moveable vertically for varying build space sizes and xy resolutions. Prints of standing-up-rings at the 30μm xy resolution can complete at default settings in only a few hours, cured, and used right away. Common bench tools and surface treatments can also be used with B9Creator prints.

SLA technology is the go-to system for fine definition work like jewellery. Professional jewellers and hobbyists alike share photos and techniques in the online Forum. Installing an RPT machine in your factory allows you faster response, without the risk of putting your digital works through the Internet, or the delays and risks of waiting for courier shipments. Make the design, lay it out, slice, print! Results within hours instead of days. The prints, or "CAMs", made in B9Creations Red or Cherry, can be put on a casting tree and direct-cast using materials and procedures specific to resins. Many techniques and materials are shared on the free Forum. Additionally, retailers can benefit from same-day customization and customer approvals. Make the desired design or modifications with the customer in the morning, have prints ready for their review post-lunch.
