Roland JWX-30 Wax Master Modeling Solution Features Powerful JewelStudio Design Software
Tuesday 08. April 2008 - Imagine. Design. Create.
Roland DG Corporation, a pioneer of advanced digital technologies, today announced the new JWX-30 wax master modeling solution featuring powerful 3D jewelry design software. The JWX-30 with bundled JewelStudio software is a complete solution that allows designers to transform their concepts into high-quality 3D digital drawings that clients can review from every angle. From these files, the JWX-30 automatically creates exceptional quality wax models that reflect much higher precision than traditional hand-made techniques for beautifully crafted rings, pendants, bracelets, brooches, earrings and cufflinks.
“Digital technology enhances a jeweler’s creativity, precision and communication with clients and makes it easier than ever to produce high-quality wax master models in-house,” said Toshihide Yahiro, Roland jewelry solution manager. “With JewelStudio design software, jewelry designs appear on screen with striking realism, allowing clients to rotate them at any angle to review the top, sides, back and bottom. This flexibility allows professionals to modify and finalize designs together with their clients for the ultimate in customer satisfaction. In addition, the exact data viewed on screen can be reproduced as a wax master model. The JWX-30 places this unprecedented efficiency, precision and flexibility within the reach of jewelers everywhere.”
Powerful Design Software
The JWX-30 includes Roland JewelStudio jewelry design software, developed specifically for jewelry designers and goldsmiths. JewelStudio allows designers to use their hand drawn sketches to create precision 3D electronic renderings of their designs. Users can also create original digital designs quickly and intuitively, with full creative flexibility, by following simple step-by-step instructions. The software offers a host of features including GemStudio, an extensive digital library of gem stones featuring varying shapes, sizes and types of gems that can be added to designs with a single click of the mouse. Modifying and resizing designs is just as easy. The Automatic Pave feature allows jewelers to choose the type and number of gems to be placed automatically on the jewelry’s surface in a dimensionally accurate pattern for beautiful results. Designers may also manually place the stones if desired, offering maximum creative flexibility.
Once the design is completed, the model can be displayed on screen and rotated easily, giving professionals and their clients a clear, accurate preview of the final product.
Automated, Precise In-House Modeling
The JWX-30 3D milling machine is designed for precision jewelry wax master model production. As an in-house production tool, the JWX-30 automates laborious, time-consuming tasks such as replicating left and right earrings and reducing model weight to meet stringent client demands. The JWX-30 delivers consistent, reliable results for finished models that reflect the highest levels of detail and accuracy.
The JWX-30 is designed for speed and versatility, allowing jewelers to create complex models without the hours of hand labor, eye-strain and stiff muscles associated with manual production processes. As a result, the JWX-30 allows professionals to increase their productivity, achieve greater profitability, keep their propriety design concepts securely in-house, and focus on the more rewarding creative aspects of their craft.
