COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR DIAMOND CENTERING

COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR DIAMOND CENTERING
DIACENTRE is a computer system for the automated centring of diamonds.
As is known, mechanical bruting demands exact centring of diamonds on the bruting equipment.
DIACENTRE allows to achieve precise centring, that considerably reduces losses of stone weight and raises quality of
finished polished diamonds.
The centring is performed by moving and shifting a diamond along the pot till the hardening of the adhesive.
DIACENTRE also has diamonds analysis opportunities, because it is based on our diamonds analysis system.
DIACENTRE can:
Automated diamonds centring.
Rough diamonds planning.
The analysis of diamonds for optimisation of a polished diamonds cut.
The analysis of inclusions in diamonds.
Calculation of the diamond sawing process.
Measuring and evaluating a polished diamonds cut.
Diamond cut grading in accordance with diamond-grading systems.
Thus, DIACENTRE can be used for performing an expert evaluation of rough diamonds, for diamond cut planning and
controlling, and for final quality control of polished diamonds.
DIACENTRE is irreplaceable tool for any diamond-cutting enterprise.
HARDWARE
DIACENTRE consists of a measuring unit with the diamond-centring device, power supply and personal computer. The
diamond-centring device is a micrometer screw with an engine.
SOFTWARE
Software is based on the algorithm creating a three-dimensional digital model of a rough diamonds surface and inclusions
with its consequent three-dimensional analysis. The algorithm of analysis defines the optimal way of cutting the specific
rough diamond within the specified set of diamond cuts and selects the best parameters for them, taking into consideration
the crystallographic axis orientation.
As optimization criteria are taken the maximal weight and maximal value of the predicted polished diamonds.
The process of diamond cut planning can be performed with different automation degrees - from the interactive mode,
where an operator manually prepares a plan of marking to fully automated planning of diamond cut.
The evaluation of a polished diamond being planned is made on the basis of the user-defined price-list in accordance with
the following four parameters: weight, colour, clarity and cut. The predicted colour is set by an operator
