10mm Pearl Starburst Diamond Surround Pendant 3DM File

Description

Introduction

The 10mm Pearl Starburst Diamond Surround Pendant 3DM File is a precision-engineered CAD asset developed for professional jewelry manufacturing environments. Designed around a starburst radial framework, the pendant features a central 10mm pearl mounting encircled by a structured diamond surround setting. The geometry is optimized for casting production across yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, silver, and platinum alloys. This 3DM file is built for workshops and CAD studios that require immediately usable, production-grade pendant models without additional geometry correction.

Manufacturing Benefits

The model is structured for direct integration into standard jewelry casting and 3D printing workflows. The starburst prong architecture maintains consistent wall thickness throughout the radial frame, reducing the risk of casting failure at thin-section areas. Each diamond seat is individually spaced and angled to support clean stone-setting operations post-casting.

• Casting-ready geometry verified across 13 metal alloy configurations in JewelCAD
• Wax CNC weight of 0.40g confirms printable geometry with minimal material usage
• Radial starburst frame designed for structural integrity during lost-wax casting
• Diamond seat spacing supports efficient bench-setting after casting
• Pendant bail includes diamond channel detail compatible with standard chain loops
• Scalable structure allows pearl size adjustment without full geometry rebuild

Stone Setting Structure

The pendant uses individual multi-prong settings for each round diamond positioned within the starburst outer frame. Ten 2.5mm round diamonds are distributed evenly around the pearl equator zone, secured by double-prong claw units that extend from the radial frame arms. Three additional 1.5mm round diamonds are set in a vertical channel along the pendant bail, providing stone continuity from the bail down to the main body. The central pearl is held by a dedicated starburst prong mounting that cradles the 10mm pearl without requiring adhesive, relying entirely on the structural prong geometry for retention.

CAD Workflow Compatibility

The 10mm Pearl Starburst Diamond Surround Pendant 3DM File is developed in JewelCAD Pro and exports cleanly to STL format for downstream use in Rhino 6, Rhino 7, Rhino 8, and MatrixGold environments. The file structure is compatible with standard jewelry manufacturing pipelines including Wax CNC milling, DLP resin printing, and lost-wax casting preparation. Workshop teams using Rhino-based post-processing can import the STL and apply final surface refinements or resizing operations without rebuilding the base geometry. The file is also compatible with third-party casting bureau submission workflows that accept STL or OBJ formats.

Manufacturing Notes

When scaling the model for different pearl sizes, uniform XYZ scaling from the pearl center point maintains the proportional relationship between the starburst frame and the pearl mounting prongs. Pearl sizes in the range of 9mm to 11mm can be accommodated with minor prong length adjustments. For casting, standard investment ratios apply across all listed alloys. Spruing should be positioned at the base of the pendant body to allow clean metal flow through the starburst radial arms. Post-casting, the prong tips require light finishing before stone setting to ensure consistent prong height across the surround. The bail channel stones are pre-set in the geometry and may be cast-in-place or set post-casting depending on workshop preference. This pendant CAD model is structured to support jewelry manufacturers, casting studios, and wholesale production teams seeking a reliable, specification-verified starburst pearl pendant asset for immediate production use.

FAQ

Is this CAD model ready for casting?

Yes. The geometry is production-verified and casting-ready across all standard jewelry alloys including gold, silver, and platinum. No additional geometry correction is required before casting.

Can the model be resized for different pearl sizes?

Yes. The model supports uniform scaling. Pearl sizes between 9mm and 11mm can be accommodated with minor prong length adjustments in JewelCAD or Rhino without rebuilding the base structure.

What file formats are included?

The primary file is in 3DM format (JewelCAD native). STL export is available for 3D printing and Rhino-based workflows. Additional formats can be requested based on manufacturing pipeline requirements.

Is the geometry optimized for stone setting?

Yes. Each diamond seat is individually modeled with correct prong geometry for round cut stones. The 2.5mm surround positions and 1.5mm bail positions are spaced for clean bench-setting operations after casting.

Which jewelry CAD software is compatible?

The model is natively built in JewelCAD Pro. Via STL export, it is compatible with Rhino 6/7/8, MatrixGold, and any manufacturing pipeline that accepts standard STL or OBJ input.
