How JINGYING Can Make CAD/3D Prototyping According to Your Silver Jewelry Picture

Introducción

In the modern jewelry industry, Diseño asistido por computadora (CANALLA) and 3D prototyping have revolutionized the way custom jewelry is created. Jingoso, a professional jewelry manufacturing company, specializes in transforming clientssilver 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 Consulta inicial

  • Envío de diseño: Clients provide images (bocetos dibujados a mano, photographs, or digital designs).

  • Material Preference: Plata (925 Plata esterlina, Plata fina, or Argentium Silver).

  • Especificaciones de diseño: Tamaño, espesor, ajustes de piedras preciosas, grabados, and finishing preferences.

1.2 Feasibility Analysis

  • Evaluación Técnica: Ensuring the design is manufacturable (P.EJ., integridad estructural, subvenciones).

  • Cost Estimation: Based on complexity, material, y trabajo.


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 (Para diseños intrincados)

    • rinoceronte (for parametric modeling)

    • Zistrush (for organic, sculptural designs)

  • Key Steps:

    1. Base Structure Creation – Extruding shapes from 2D outlines.

    2. Detallando – Adding textures, grabados, y engastes de piedras preciosas.

    3. Boolean Operations – Combining/subtracting geometries for hollow designs.

    4. Sizing Adjustments – Ensuring accurate ring sizes, bracelet diameters, etc..

2.3 Client Review & Revisiones

  • 3D Renders: Photorealistic images for approval.

  • Modificaciones: Ajustes basados en comentarios (P.EJ., espesor, stone placement).


3. 3D Prototipos (Prototipos rápidos)

3.1 Choosing the Right 3D Printing Technology

Tecnología Material Exactitud Mejor para
SLA (Estereolitmicromografía) Resina ±0.1mm High-detail rings, colgantes
DMLS (Direct Metal Laser Sintering) Metal Powder ±0.05mm Functional prototypes
Wax Printing Castable Wax ±0.2mm Casting de inversión

3.2 Printing Process

  1. File Preparation: Exporting the CAD file as an STL/OBJ format.

  2. Support Structures: Adding temporary supports for overhangs.

  3. 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. Fundición & Finishing the Silver Jewelry

4.1 Casting de inversión (If Using Wax Prototypes)

  1. Fabricación de moldes: Coating the wax model in ceramic slurry.

  2. Agotamiento: Melting the wax to leave a hollow mold.

  3. Fundición de plata: Pouring molten silver (925) into the mold.

  4. Devastador: 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 & enchapado to achieve a mirror finish.

4.3 Acabado Final

  • Presentación & Lijado – Removing imperfections.

  • Pulido – Using rotary tools with diamond paste.

  • Oxidation/Patina – For antique effects (opcional).

  • Entorno de piedra preciosa – If applicable.


5. Control de calidad & Entrega

5.1 Lista de verificación de inspección

✔ Dimensional accuracy (compared to CAD)
✔ Surface finish (no pits or cracks)
✔ Gemstone security (if set)
✔ Hallmarking (925 estampilla)

5.2 Embalaje & Envío

  • Anti-Tarnish Packaging – Prevents oxidation.

  • Secure Shipping – Insured courier services.


6. Benefits of Choosing JINGYING for CAD/3D Prototyping

Respuesta Rápida – 5–7 days for CAD, 3–5 days for prototyping.
Rentable – Eliminates manual carving costs.
High Precision – ±0.1mm accuracy.
Personalización – Easy modifications before final production.
