3D Printing for Jewelry Manufacturing
UNLEASH DESIGN FREEDOM AND INCREASE QUALITY FOR HIGH-VOLUME PRODUCTION AND CUSTOM JEWELRY
The Role of 3D Printing in Jewelry Manufacturing
Lost Wax Casting
Reveal your most creative jewelry designs faster and increase productivity without compromising quality. Our solutions for 3D printed jewelry casting patterns fit with your standard process for reliable output every time, bringing you maximum design freedom for high-volume and mass custom jewelry manufacturing.
Mold Making
Leverage 3D Systems solutions developed for compatibility with jewelry mold making processes for high-volume manufacturing. 3D print ultra-high-detail, heat-resistant, high-quality, complex master patterns to create your rubber mold in a matter of hours.
Prototyping
Accelerate creativity with accurate, finely detailed, high-fidelity prototypes. Our solutions provide a quick turnaround from digital designs to 3D printed jewelry models, allowing for fast design iteration, validation, stone settings, and try-on.
