ā³ļøĀ The interesting case of one of our customers from India
In a goldsmith's workshop in Mumbai, India, a craftsman
goldsmith proudly observes the light of his CNC machine TAU by Cielle brand
deep an intricate pattern on a platinum bracelet.
Each strong line adds personality and value to the
jewel, embellishing it with decorations that were previously impossible to create
with this definition.
Since adopting TAU, this customer manages to embellish
its jewels with motifs deeply engraved in the metal, combining innovation
technology to the rich aesthetics of local goldsmith art.
Unique pieces that tell a story, where tradition and
modernity merges ā and customers are enchanted by the details and
to the precision of each process.
ā”ļø Centering the motif to be engraved by projection is very easy
The TAU offers cutting-edge tools for you too
obtain the maximum precision in every process. Specifically, it is
equipped with a centering camera which projects the area to be marked
directly on the jewel (for example on the bracelet) even before
affect.
Ā
As seen in the image, the software overlays in time
the graphics on the piece are real, allowing you perfect alignment of the
drawing on the first try.
Thanks to this function, you can place the motif exactly where it is
desires, eliminating errors and waste material.
Furthermore, the TAU allows you to monitor the processing in
real time: through the security window or on the screen of the
computer, follow every moment of the process knowing exactly what is happening
happening. This means total control over the final result and the
certainty that every incision ā however complex ā will coincide exactly with
your vision.
ā”ļø WHY A LASER MOPA?
Ā
It is worth delving deeper into what makes the heart of
TAU: Its 50W MOPA laser source. Unlike lasers
traditional, this technology offers unique features that elevate the
quality and versatility of laser markings:
- Pulse
variable: TAU uses a fiber laser in MOPA configuration
(Master Oscillator Power Amplifier), which means that the duration of
each laser pulse is adjustable in a wide range. You're not
bound to a single fixed pulse: you can set very short pulses or
longer depending on your needs.
This flexibility allows you to "shape" the laser energy in a
precise on the material, now obtaining light and detailed engravings, now
deeper, bolder markings ā all with the same machine. The control
end of the resulting marking eliminates burrs and deformations:
the metal is never overheated beyond necessary, and every line
engraved is clean and sharp.
- Quality
excellent on shiny metals: the 50W MOPA source guarantees engraving
homogeneous and defined even on highly reflective surfaces such as
polished steel or mirrored silver.
With conventional lasers, engraving these materials can result
difficult ā you risk halos, difficult to read engravings or depth
irregular. TAU, on the other hand, engraves them easily, producing clear markings
and uniforms. Even on elegant sterling silver or steel
polished stainless steel, the engraved decorations are bright and free
of visual imperfections.
- Contrasts
high and black markings: thanks to flexible pulse control,
TAU can achieve very high contrast markings. By adjusting the
right parameters, it is possible to darken the metal surface
without removing it, creating writings or motifs in a deep black and
uniform (annealing/blackening process) on materials such as steel
stainless, titanium and other metals.
This effect of black marking was almost unattainable with
standard laser, but with MOPA technology it is clear and stable: ideal
for logos, texts or patterns that must stand out clearly from the background
metallic.
Imagine being able to engrave your brand in black on a surface
shiny silver ā with TAU you can, adding a spectacular contrast
which enhances the design of the jewel.
- Power
and versatility ideal for goldsmiths: i 50W of power
TAU lasers not only mean higher speed, but also the ability to
perform deep and relief engravings on precious metals with
great efficiency.
More "soft" metals such as gold, silver, copper or brass can be
etch deeply quickly, allowing you to create texture and
bas-reliefs on jewelery without long processing times.
At the same time, the delicacy of the MOPA control ensures that even the details
finer ā for example a filigree on a silver pendant or a
decorative texture on a gold ring ā are reproduced perfectly,
without ruining the surrounding shiny surfaces.
In practice, TAU combines power and finesse: with a single machine
you will be able to both deeply engrave the inside of a rigid bracelet and
create an elaborate decoration on its external surface and
contrasted, all while maintaining excellent artisan quality.
The testimony that comes from India shows us how to innovate
in jewelry is possible by integrating the right technology.
If you also you have special processes to carry out ā
deep engravings, elaborate patterns or unique customizations ā ora knows a
who to contact.
With Cielle's TAU machine, you will be able to transform
every idea into an extraordinary jewel, in a short time and with the utmost
quality.
