Sarin Says Galaxy Ultra Ready for Launch in Surat and Tel Aviv

Sarin Technologies has announced the launch of the commercial service of the Galaxy Ultra in its Surat and Tel Aviv service centers after a successful conclusion of testing in Surat, India.

The service will be provided at other service centers as warranted by demand, while sales and delivery of Galaxy Ultra systems to interested customers is expected later in this year.

“The new GalaxyTM Ultra offers significant advantages to manufacturers as it provides inclusion scanning of the rough diamond at microscope level magnification, in addition to the normal scanning executed by the standard GalaxyTM systems. This allows the detection of inclusions with single-micron resolution, including the detection of clouds of inclusions of single micron size. Users will thus be able to inspect seemingly clean areas of rough diamonds with extra-high accuracy and determine with a higher level of confidence whether they can achieve an Internally Flawless (IF) clarity grade,” the firm said.

“The scanning, detection and inclusion mapping on the Ultra are fully automatic, even at this high level of resolution, not like alternative solutions, where one needs to manually and tediously browse the stone using a microscope, micron layer by micron layer.”

Sarin’s Executive Director and CEO Uzi Levami said: “With its introduction, manufacturers can now take advantage of the Galaxy's unique characteristics - its execution of comprehensive inclusion mapping, automatically and at unmatched speeds, and also benefit from microscope-level resolution and accuracy.

“We believe that Sarin’s customers will significantly benefit from the new capabilities offered by the Ultra, as they will be able to truly optimize the quality and value of the polished diamonds they produce from their high quality rough stones and more confidently achieve far more finished diamonds with IF and VVS clarity grades.”
