Wie Jingying CAD/3D -Prototyping nach Ihrem Silberschmuck Bild machen kann
Einführung
In the modern jewelry industry, Computergestütztes Design (CAD) and 3D prototyping have revolutionized the way custom jewelry is created. Jingying, a professional jewelry manufacturing company, specializes in transforming clients’ silver jewelry ideas into precise CAD models and 3D-printed prototypes. This article explores the step-by-step process of how JINGYING converts a jewelry picture into a physical prototype, the technologies involved, and the benefits of using CAD/3D prototyping for silver jewelry production.
1. Understanding the Client’s Design Requirements
1.1 Erstberatung
-
Design Submission: Clients provide images (handgezeichnete Skizzen, photographs, or digital designs).
-
Material Preference: Silber (925 Sterlingsilber, Feines Silber, or Argentium Silver).
-
Designspezifikationen: Größe, Dicke, gemstone settings, Gravuren, and finishing preferences.
1.2 Feasibility Analysis
-
Technical Assessment: Ensuring the design is manufacturable (Z.B., structural integrity, undercuts).
-
Cost Estimation: Based on complexity, material, and labor.
2. CAD Modeling Process
2.1 Image Processing & Digital Sketching
-
2D to 3D Conversion: Using software like Adobe Illustrator or Rhino to outline the design.
-
Vectorization: Converting hand-drawn sketches into editable digital formats.
2.2 3D Modeling in Jewelry CAD Software
-
Software Used:
-
Matrix Gold (für komplizierte Designs)
-
RhinoGold (for parametric modeling)
-
ZBrush (for organic, sculptural designs)
-
-
Key Steps:
-
Base Structure Creation – Extruding shapes from 2D outlines.
-
Details – Adding textures, Gravuren, und Edelsteineinstellungen.
-
Boolean Operations – Combining/subtracting geometries for hollow designs.
-
Sizing Adjustments – Ensuring accurate ring sizes, bracelet diameters, usw.
-
2.3 Client Review & Revisions
-
3D Renders: Photorealistic images for approval.
-
Modifications: Adjustments based on feedback (Z.B., Dicke, stone placement).
3. 3D Prototyping (Schnelles Prototyping)
3.1 Choosing the Right 3D Printing Technology
| Technologie | Material | Accuracy | Am besten für |
|---|---|---|---|
| SLA (Stereolithographie) | Harz | ±0.1mm | High-detail rings, Anhänger |
| DMLS (Direct Metal Laser Sintering) | Metal Powder | ±0.05mm | Functional prototypes |
| Wax Printing | Castable Wax | ±0.2mm | Feinguss |
3.2 Printing Process
-
File Preparation: Exporting the CAD file as an STL/OBJ format.
-
Support Structures: Adding temporary supports for overhangs.
-
Printing: Layer-by-layer fabrication (takes 2–6 hours depending on size).
3.3 Post-Processing
-
Support Removal: Manual or chemical cleaning.
-
Sanding/Polishing: Smoothing layer lines for a flawless finish.
4. Casting & Finishing the Silver Jewelry
4.1 Investment Casting (If Using Wax Prototypes)
-
Schimmelherstellung: Coating the wax model in ceramic slurry.
-
Burnout: Melting the wax to leave a hollow mold.
-
Silberguss: Pouring molten silver (925) into the mold.
-
Entwederung: Breaking the mold to retrieve the silver piece.
4.2 Direct Metal Printing (If Using DMLS)
-
No mold needed – The prototype is already in metal.
-
Requires polishing & Überzug to achieve a mirror finish.
4.3 Final Finishing
-
Einreichung & Schleifen – Removing imperfections.
-
Polieren – Using rotary tools with diamond paste.
-
Oxidation/Patina – For antique effects (optional).
-
Gemstone Setting – If applicable.
5. Qualitätskontrolle & Lieferung
5.1 Inspektionscheckliste
✔ Dimensional accuracy (compared to CAD)
✔ Surface finish (no pits or cracks)
✔ Gemstone security (if set)
✔ Hallmarking (925 Stempel)
5.2 Verpackung & Versand
-
Anti-Tarnish Packaging – Prevents oxidation.
-
Secure Shipping – Insured courier services.
6. Benefits of Choosing JINGYING for CAD/3D Prototyping
✅ Schnelle Turnaround – 5–7 days for CAD, 3–5 days for prototyping.
✅ Cost-Effective – Eliminates manual carving costs.
✅ High Precision – ±0.1mm accuracy.
✅ Anpassung – Easy modifications before final production.
