The diamond splitter is a powerful tool for identifying the authenticity of lab diamonds

  Natural diamonds are very difficult to mine and a high quality diamond requires the hard work and sweat of countless working people, thus making many technical engineers want to change this current situation. 

  With the advent of science and technology, the world's first laboratory diamond was created in 1953, breaking down the difficulties of natural diamond mining. By the 21st century the jewellery grade diamonds that have been produced have become lab diamonds.

  The emergence of lab diamonds has had a major impact on the entire diamond industry, mainly because both natural and lab diamonds are diamonds, which we cannot distinguish with the naked eye and require the use of large optical devices that can distinguish diamonds by their growth environment and internal molecular structure.

  As the cultivated market share gradually increases, a low-cost, accurate, portable device is needed to distinguish between diamonds of different origins. Dean Yuan Xinqiang of Wuhan University of Geosciences has developed a diamond splitter to solve the problem of differentiating natural diamond grade lab diamonds. With multiple tests of the data, the results can be produced in seconds with a single click using the diamond splitter.

Fields of application of the diamond splitter.

  1: The diamond splitter is suitable for a wide range of fields and can assist the relevant departments in the management of diamond business and the initial screening of diamond categories, saving a lot of manpower and material resources. It shortens the efficiency of business processing.

  2: Diamond retailers can avoid confusion during the transaction process by using the diamond splitter, which not only improves the trust of customers but also ensures their own interests. The diamond splitter is a powerful aid for diamond brands and a guarantee for the diamond recycling business.

Use of the diamond splitter.

  The diamond splitter is a portable appraisal instrument used to distinguish between natural and lab diamonds. It supports battery or external power supply and is easy and convenient to operate.

Can the diamond splitter detect coloured diamonds?

  No, it does not support natural coloured diamonds, only white coloured diamonds.

Can a split diamond appraiser detect diamond rings that are set?

  No. The splitter will work fine on diamond rings without a backing, but it will not work on sealed rings.

Can the splitter detect moissanite stone?

  No, at present it does not support the identification of non-diamond varieties. You can use a loupe, a stylus or the scribing and dripping methods to determine whether a stone is a diamond.

How large a diamond can be tested with a splitter?

  The splitter can detect rough or loose diamonds from 5-10 carats, below 5 cents using a diamond centile or split stone screening instrument.

How often do I have to replace the batteries in my splitter?

  When the power light is not on, it means that the battery is low and needs to be replaced. The batteries can be removed when the instrument is not in use for a long time to prevent corrosion of the circuitry.
