For teaching modeling and rendering student's 3D designs in wax, UK's top jewellery school has invested in a Unimatic Solidscape rapid prototyping machine.
Holts, gemstone and jewellery specialists of Hatton Garden in London, are the only company in Europe to offer complete jewellery industry training.
Solidscape produces the best surface finish, there are no burnout problems and the technique of wax layer build-up eliminates ash contamination that can be a problem with other resin-based systems. Its fantastic resolution gives amazingly detailed results and is best in the market.
The Solidscape series of high-speed model makers for prototyping and product development rapidly create accurate models by building up layer upon layer of a wax that can be used to produce a mould using the 'lost-wax' casting process.
The process is ideal for the making of jewellery where student's designs are produced using industry standards.
Ultra-high resolution and fine surface finish give good results straight from the mould, reducing the amount of machine cleaning and polishing that is required and enabling the most intricate and delicate of designs to be realized.
The Solidscape is as easy to use as a computer printer, very fast and the accuracy and finish are second to none. The model envelope is 6" x 6" x 6" enabling students to design large pieces of costume jewellery for Holts.
