The Research and Development of CNC Diamond Faceting Machine

Article Preview

Abstract:

Diamond faceting is an important process of precious metal jewelry.Now it mainly rely on traditional processing methods to operate manual processing, but the pattern processed by manual is poor quality, consistency, and it also requires workers to have higher operating techniques and experience. What’s more, after long continuous work, workers’ body will cause some damage. This article develops a five-axis CNC diamond faceting machine based on Solidworks platform, introduces the design of each axis of the machine and describes the research of the tool path algorithm on the surface of jewelry and completes the parametric equations’ derivation of space curve in the surface of ellipsoid, finally use MATLAB GUI module to write the tool path generation software.
