What’s New in MatrixGold 3 for Jewelry Designers
The latest version of MatrixGold introduces several improvements that make jewelry CAD design faster, smarter, and more efficient. With new modeling tools, improved workflow features, and enhanced visualization options, MatrixGold 3 helps designers create detailed jewelry pieces with greater control and accuracy.
One of the biggest highlights is the integration of advanced rendering tools that allow designers to generate realistic visuals of their jewelry designs. This makes it easier to present concepts to clients and visualize the final product before production.
Another useful addition is the Smart Prong feature, which helps designers automatically place prongs accurately between stones in a stone line. This tool simplifies gemstone setting and reduces the time required for complex adjustments.
MatrixGold 3 also introduces a Boolean One-by-One tool, making complex Boolean operations easier to manage. Designers can isolate and fix specific elements individually, resulting in cleaner and more precise modeling results.
For designers creating bridal sets or matching jewelry pieces, the Matching Band Rail feature is extremely helpful. It automatically generates a band that follows the contour of a ring, making it easier to design perfectly fitting matching bands.
Another improvement is the ability to quickly switch parametric functionality on or off across tools. This gives designers more flexibility depending on the type of design they are working on and allows faster editing when required.
MatrixGold 3 also includes tools for better organization and workflow management. Designers can use project tags to organize files and quickly locate designs, while quick command tabs allow easy access to frequently used tools.
Overall, these updates make MatrixGold 3 a powerful solution for modern jewelry designers. With smarter tools, better visualization, and improved workflow efficiency, the software continues to evolve as one of the leading CAD platforms used in the jewelry industry.
