  • Spin casting:

    Spin casting is a technique and method where liquid metal is injected into a high-speed rotating mold, allowing the metal to centrifugally fill the mold and form the casting.

  • Die-casting:

    Die-casting involves injecting molten metal into a mold under high pressure. It's a highly efficient method for producing large quantities of metal components with consistent quality and precision.

  • Lost-Wax Casting:

    A method where a wax model is covered in plaster to create a mold, which is then heated to remove the wax and filled with molten metal to form the jewelry piece.

  • Plating:

    Electroplating is the process of using electrolysis to attach a layer of metal film to the surface of metal or other materials to prevent metal oxidation (such as rust), improve wear resistance, electrical conductivity, reflective property, corrosion resistance (copper sulfate, etc.) and improve beauty.

  • Stamping:

    Stamping is a forming processing method that relies on press and die to apply external force to plate, strip, pipe and profile, so as to obtain the required shape and size of stamping parts.

  • Laser cutting:

    Laser cutting: Laser cutting uses a high-powered laser beam to precisely cut or engrave materials such as metal, wood, acrylic, or leather. In jewelry making, it's used to cut intricate designs or patterns into metal sheets or to create custom shapes for components.

  • Polishing:

    Polishing: This process smooths and shines the jewelry surface to enhance its appearance and remove any imperfections.

  • Soldering:

    Welding: is a kind of heating, high temperature or high pressure way to join alloys or metal materials manufacturing process and technology

  • Assembling:

    Assembling involves putting together various components to create a finished jewelry piece. This can include connecting metal parts, attaching gemstones or beads, and adding findings such as clasps and ear wires.

  • Enameling:

    Enameling is the process of fusing powdered glass onto metal surfaces to create a durable and colorful coating. It's used to add vibrant colors and decorative patterns to jewelry pieces.

  • Gluing:

    This method uses adhesive to attach stones or other components to the jewelry.

  • Laser engraving:

    Laser engraving: Laser engraving is a process in which a laser beam removes material from the surface of a material in order to create a design or pattern. It is usually used to add decorative elements or logos to metal jewelry, and laser marking can control the depth of the logo to ensure that the pattern is clear.

  • Coating:

    Coating involves applying a thin layer of metal or other materials onto the surface of a jewelry piece to enhance its appearance or properties. Common coatings include gold plating, silver plating, rhodium plating, and anti-tarnish coatings.

  • Stone Setting:

    This involves securing gemstones into the jewelry piece using various techniques like prong, bezel, or pave settings.

  • Etching:

    A technique that uses chemicals or lasers to create intricate designs and patterns on the surface of the metal.
