Our customer Aurea Joyas has started using 3D CAD, and wishes to produce a new collection based on geometrical shapes. It is very difficult to accurately reproduce geometrical designs by hand, as jewellery makers have been doing up until now. The standard process starts by creating a master to then copy it in silicone or rubber, producing the desired number of copies in wax, followed by investment casting in precious metals. The goal is to improve the production of master parts in terms of accuracy and cost.
Our customer SOCINSER needs to manufacture a set of instruments for a new type of surgery, following the requirements of the surgeon who has developed a new technique. A first prototype set has already been manufactured by traditional means (milling, lathing and welding) which has allowed the first series of field tests to be performed. But this can be further improved.
