SYNOVA and Sahajanand Technologies join hands

A new technology for diamond cutting is being introduced by the collaborative efforts of SYNOVA and Sahajanand Technologies (P) Ltd.(STPL), Surat, India. The two entities have entered into a worldwide exclusive technological collaboration. SYNOVA is reputed as a leading provider of innovative laser cutting systems for a broad range of micromachining and dicing applications. Sahajanand Technologies (P) Ltd.(STPL)is a pioneer in design, research, development and manufacturing of Gemstone Processing Machineries, Industrial Automation Systems & Vision based machineries for Inspection and Measurement.

Extending its portfolio of water jet-guided laser technology, Synova has introduced a Proprietary Laser MicroJet® which is a water jet-guided laser cutting technology, to meet demanding manufacturing specifications and low cost-of-ownership requirements associated with high-volume production of today’s advanced electronic and micromechanical devices.

Laser MicroJet® (LMJ) technology delivers cutting quality unmatched by conventional techniques, enabling device manufacturers to process advanced materials without subjecting them to heat damage, contamination and deformation.

Laser-sawing technology has progressed over time from beginnings as blade sawing technology, moving onto the 2nd generation technology of Lamp based technology, IR diode based technology was the third generation technology and Green diode based technology was the fourth generation.

The tie-up between the two entities introduces the 5th generation technology for diamond cutting “The most important factor of this Laser Microjet® technology is the collimated laser spot which eliminates the possibilities of PUNCTURE & KHAJURA”, noted Dr. Bernold Richerzhagen President and CEO Synova SA. The straight cut laser sawing minimises the utmost loss in diamond and enhances the value to the same diamond. Moreover, due to the straight-cut laser sawing, pointers and cut-grade cannot be missed as in the case of V - cut laser sawing, which adds a true ‘value-addition’ in polished diamond” – added Marketing Director of Sahajanand Technologies, Mr. Prakash Rakholia.

Our endeavor is to bestow a revolutionary product to Diamond Manufacturers. The combined efforts from both these companies will bring a true value addition in diamonds & will provide the competitive edge to diamond industry which will help meet the technological demands of rapidly growing diamond industry”, said chairman of Sahajanand Technologies, Mr. Dhirajlal Kotadia.

“Dr. Bernold Richerzhagen President and CEO Synova SA said “This relationship will enable us to solidify our mission and will strengthen SYNOVA’S & STPL’s position as the provider of innovative laser cutting systems for the Diamond Industry”.
