JewelFab DWS stands for faster production and more time for design

Our JewelFab DWS was developed to make job preparation as easy and efficient as possible for all users of digital wax machines. Its intuitive user interface systematically guides both experts and newcomers through the process of data preparation. Process-oriented functionality allows you to cover the largest part of your work sequences with only one software solution. Being a solution that is tailored to the jewelry industry it meets the demands from the goldsmith right up to the industrial-scale jeweler. Based on our customer's feedback we continually optimize our software

Whether you want to process large amounts of data, repair automatically, or generate supports as quickly as possible: JewelFab DWS enables you to fully utilize your building platform and make maximum use of your machine. Moreover, by using innovative tree supports, automatic union of individual parts, and flexible building strategies you can reduce your workload while profiting from enhanced part quality.

Verification

Locate, correct, and report any quality shortcomings in your 3D models to avoid rejects and thus budget overrun before you go into production.

Multi part ring
  • Profit from the automatic coloring of parts when importing data
  • Spot any model errors directly on import and repair them automatically or manually
  • Utilize the dimensioning and labeling functions to systematically analyze product details and document errors
  • Locate critical part areas as early as possible using the visual verification of wall thickness

Preparation

Process large amounts of model data and optimize your production results.

Multi part ring
  • Filter degenerated triangles or enhance and smooth surfaces by adjusting the triangles
  • Optimize triangle quality through re-triangulation of the surface
  • Minimize data volume by reducing the number of triangles and thus speed up processing time
  • Enhance part precision by compensating the Z deviation

Part Alignment

Manually or automatically define the position of the part on the building platform.

Multi part ring
  • Determine the part's optimal position on the base plate while at the same time identifying overhang areas to be supported and estimate build times
  • Detect possible collisions as well as parts situated outside of the permitted areas

Supports

User-friendly and flexible: Generate the optimal support structure to ensure accurate production and the best possible part quality.

Multi part ring
  • Cone or tree supports to compensate adhesion forces
  • Use supports as sprues in casting
  • Replace time-consuming CAD supports with flexible tree supports in just a few clicks
  • Generate optimal supports even for the most complex part geometries
  • Minimize contact areas between support and part surface
  • Select from various support geometries and areas
  • Profit from the automatic tree branching to quickly generate supports
  • Generate supports effortlessly
  • Minimize material cost and production time

Platform Assembly

Fast and easy nesting of parts on the build platform allow for an optimum utilization of machine capacity.

Multi part ring
  • Duplicate parts that need to be manufactured more than once
  • Place the maximum number of parts on the building platform using real part dimensions
  • A permanent calculation of build time and costs assists you in planning machine capacities and preparing quotes
  • Integrated machine and material databases with configurable process parameters for part placement and cost calculation.

Slicing and Build Job Generation

Generate high-precision slicing data and utilize flexible and efficient hatching strategies for DWS machines 008, 028, and 029.

Multi part ring
  • Select from several different layer thicknesses
  • Apply hatching distances specific to each material
  • Export your build job into MKR format

Slice-Based Functionality

Profit from slice-based functionality to reduce preparation time.

Multi part ring
  • Save time with the automatic union of individual parts - 2D slice-based instead of using 3D surface data (STL)
  • Automatically repair parts layer by layer and thus reduce processing time
