Additive Manufacturing of Precious Metal Jewellery (PRECIOUS)

该项目旨在迅速将贵金属珠宝首饰的3d打印（或增材制造）工艺推向完全的商业成熟，目前在少数英国公司处于不同的部分准备阶段。为了实现这一目标，我们联盟的成员将共同努力，通过使用一些聪明的、解决问题的、端到端系统集成来相互解决一些突出的问题。从优化设计创作和开发过程，通过各种已知的制造问题，生产出精心设计、高质量、高度抛光、商业销售的珠宝。为了实现这一目标，联盟合作伙伴还将创建可操作的、可行的供应、分销和价值链，以有效地反映该项目所需的新商业模式的发展。

This project is aimed at rapidly bringing to full commercial maturity the proces of 3D-Printing (or Additive Manufacturing) of precious metal jewellery items that is currently at varying stages of partial readiness at a small number of UK companies. To achieve this the members of our consortium will work together to mutually solve a number of outstanding problems by use of some clever, problem solving, end-to-end system integrations. Ranging from optimising the design creation and development process, through the various known manufacturing issues to produce items of well designed, high quality and highly polished, commercially saleable jewellery. To achieve this the consortium partners will also create operational and viable supply, distribution and value chains that reflect effectively the development of the new business model this project requires.
