Diamond innovation company InnovSeed has launched a new robotic solution for rough assortment and traceability that works more than five times faster than its predecessor.
The DiaBot NX, powered by advanced AI and robotics, automatically sorts rough diamonds based on color, weight, shape, and fluorescence, at a rate of just 3.7 seconds per stone.
In addition to taking a rough fingerprint it also generates a 3D model and takes 360-degree photos and videos, all without human intervention.
“We not only elevate operational efficiency, but we also raise traceability standards, empowering stakeholders with confidence and transparency,” said Mayur Chovatiya, CEO of the company, based in Surat, India.
InnovSeed introduced its first rough sorting robot, DiaBot, two years ago. It says the machines have since scanned more than 3 million diamonds, revolutionizing operations for mines, tender houses, and manufacturers. The original DiaBot could scan a stone in 20 seconds.
The new model operates at over five times that speed and handles rough diamonds from melee size up to 10mm.
“They offer real-time matching of rough diamonds, seamlessly enhancing operational efficiency,” said Vipul Sutariya, a user and sightholder.
“Their instantaneous processing capabilities optimize production workflows, enabling swift decision-making and real-time resource allocation.”
InnovSeed says its DiaBot technology is now ready for use with Tracr, the traceability platform developed by De Beers, after successfully integrating data for thousands of diamonds.
“The Diabot technology is an important part of capturing rough Diamond data at scale,” said Wesley Tucker, Tracr’s CEO.
“As provenance becomes more prevalent in the diamond industry, Tracr continues to work with technology providers to create rich digital twins of diamonds on our platform.”
InnovSeed has also conducted successful integrations with the Australia-based blockchain based traceability platform, Everledger.
InnovSeed harnesses the power of AI and robotics to develop techno-commercial solutions for diamond manufacturer companies, which help them increase their production speed, save time and cost, uphold traceability, enhance security, and utilize the power of data.
