How Technology Helps To Make Small Diamonds?

Posted by Amrit Verma on April 27th, 2019

Large and big size diamonds make headlines. They stand out for their rarity, sparkle and value. Large diamonds capture the attention and imagination of the market. The diamond wedding jewellery manufacturers in Kolkata are aware of it and quite understandably akin to the phenomenon of large size diamonds. On the other hand, small diamonds are more common, and more accessible to the average buyer. But if you look at how a small diamond is planned and produced, you’ll find out an incredible story of technological accuracy and ingenuity.

How Small is Considered as Small Diamond?

Diamonds in the smaller segment can become truly tiny to the naked eye. A 1-carat diamond is made up of 100 points. So, a 5-point diamond is just 1/20th of a carat. When measured a 5-point diamond is a tiny 2.25 millimeters.

But because of their size and rarity, larger diamonds are more valuable than smaller diamonds. For diamond jewellery wholesalers in Kolkata and manufacturers, it is worthwhile investing more in the technology and processes required to produce larger polished diamonds. On the other hand, the manufacturers of smaller diamonds must find ways to reduce the cost of their production while still ensuring a good level of quality to maximize the diamonds value and potential profit margin.

Getting Maximum Value from Miniature Diamonds

In the past, smaller diamonds were mapped for inclusions manually. The results were much slower and far less accurate that can be achieved by technology. With the help of technology, it is possible to scan and map small diamonds at a more rapid pace, thereby making the technology more cost effective for manufacturers involved in the mass production of smaller, and cheaper diamonds. For the manufacturers of diamond wedding jewellery in Kolkata, technology reveals a level of detail in the rough diamond that could not be seen before. Inclusion planning is just the first step in maximizing the polished value of tiny rough diamonds. Technology automatically plans rough diamonds after the inclusion scanning and provides dozen of possible cutting plans – without the need for human intervention, reducing planning time and increasing productivity. In the smaller diamonds segment, where profit margins are tighter, efficiency in rough planning is critical. For small size rough diamonds, even tiny improvements in the cutting plan can make a huge difference. For example, the ability to extract a 2-pointer polished diamond instead of a 1 pointer– although only millimeters of diamond are involved – leads to a significant increase in the profit yielded from the rough diamond. When it comes to a big diamond, the diamond itself becomes a story. When it comes to small diamonds, the role of technology is how it is used to plan and cut such a tiny, value-added jewel. The makers of best diamond jewellery in Kolkata use technology to manufacture diamonds.  Use of technology has completely revolutionized the diamond industry.  Technology has been successful to position small diamonds in generating maximum value.
