Helium Polish

Introduction

The Helium Polish diamond scanner is probably the most precise and popular polish diamond scanner used invariably by diamond cutting factories, laboratories and dealers alike, with modern interface, a plenty of new features and intuitive user interface making it very easy for the first time users. Helium has become a de facto standard today for accurate measurement of various parameters & its deviations. HP offers a wide selection of various appraisal system, including GIA-Facetware and user defined MyGIA. It has been invariably used by all Global Diamond Grading labs including GIA, AGS, IGI, HRD, GSI, IIJ, WGI, GTL (GJEPC), IDI, IIDGR, NGTC and various others. When a diamond is scanned with this scanner, a very accurate 3D-model is constructed, which details the facets slope angle, its azimuth and its junction with adjacent facets. This 3D model allows accurate visualization and realistic image rendering, to objectively analyse and grade symmetry + cut. The model will show major and minor symmetry errors, which can be used to generate reports based on various appraisal system. The program allows users to create various user defined Custom reports, to achieve the final goal. Very accurate 3D model allows the user to perform ray trace analysis, and generate photoreal image to understand light return and optical performance of the scanned diamond.

Salient Features

This scanner scans the polish diamonds with ultrahigh precision, within a very tight 6 sigma limits, helping the labs to consistently grade the cut and symmetry based on 3D scan with high confidence. So invariably almost all the labs worldwide uses Helium Polish scanner for cut and symmetry grading.
A typical test report for a scanner is reproduced below: Note the ±3σ value.

Consistent measurement readings comfort the polisher while attempting minor facet corrections to improve cut and symmetry grade.
Helium Polish scanner do not require any adjustments or calibration. In fact the precision is built into the scanner to consistently give the correct reading all the time, no matter where the scanner is installed or when it is used. Thermal expansions are compensated automatically during the use, thus requiring no adjustments.
The minor symmetries are very precisely picked up, allowing graders to completely rely on the 3D model built by the scanner, and grade the symmetry objectively:
Interactive 3D (i3D) report includes everything one wants in a report, including photoreal images and fold symmetry report.
The program allows one to prepare optional* Custom Report to suitable any specific need or analysis.
More than 3000 data fields are exported, including images for every scan.
Optional Asymmetric Smart Recut including GIA Facetware + MyGIA adds a great value while working with semi-polish diamonds. A gain of 2 to 3% in yield is very common.
Possibility to transfer bruting data directly to EOS Fancy bruting machine for precise reproduction of Asymmetric recut plan.
Useful for Rounds and Fancies, Semi-polish and polish alike.
Can build 3D models of special fancy cut diamonds with very high precision, while using sample ASC as scan reference.
Helps polishers in correcting the multi-fold symmetry / junction symmetry, and the grader to objectively grade the shape symmetry based on the scan data:
