3D printing is becoming the game-changer for the jewellery industry. It produces casting patterns faster and more efficiently. Traditional jewellery design is a multistage and meticulous process.
Traditional design begins with the designer sketching the design, some of them will model it out in CAD software. Otherwise, once the sketch is approved, it is carved out of wax and re-inspected before casting. If the wax mould is not close to the original sketch or fails the expectations, it has to redo the whole process. This process takes up a large amount of time and typically spans around two to three weeks.
Below is the traditional casting process for jewellery:
Now with the help of 3D printers, you can reduce the time spent to create the casting patterns by 90%; this allows you to have a faster turnover cycle of new seasonal designs and deliver to market faster. Besides reducing the time, you can also reduce the cost of casting patterns by 92%.
