Helium Polish
The Helium Polish diamond scanner is a modern device for cutting factories, laboratories and dealers. When a diamond is scanned with Helium an accurate 3D-model is constructed for the angle of inclination and the azimuth. This 3D model allows accurate visualization and realistic images to be produced that can show small distortions of symmetry and to use the output with various systems of appraisal. The program creates user-defined reports including that you can make with whichever selection you choose from the information in the detailed Helium report.
Existing scanners measure facet angles using a silhouette approach. But a facet has more than just an inclination, to properly describe it, we also need to know its orientation - what we call its azimuth. The Helium 3D-model also includes such elements as additional facets.

There are two core distinctions between the Helium scanner and other scanner models:
1. Нelium scanner determines with high accuracy both the inclination of a facet and its azimuth.
2. Нelium 3D model reveals major and minor symmetry features.

Open 3D model* of the scanned diamond with major and minor symmetry features.
3D model of round brilliant created by Helium polish is enough to estimate optic and minor symmetry quality. You can export 3D model to DiamCalc software and explore it. DiamCalc allows creating photoreal image of Helium Polish 3D model.
The system scanns different distortions, for example girdles with a conical shape, and calculating parameters more correct than manual measurements.
Very detailed reports display most of physical features of the polished diamond, including "Minimum Inscribed Circle - MIC", Error in radial roundness, Kozibe, Fish eye angle, Spread, Out of shape, Inclination + Azimuth angle of all the halves, Crown and Pavilion painting type and many other.

Helium Polish software allows creating and customizing reports for round brilliant, marquise, oval, pear, princess, step cuts, cushion, radiants and any cuts for polished and semipolished diamonds. More examples of reports:
| Method (precision) | Quantity of contours | Time of scan mode, sec | Time of build mode, sec* | Total time, sec |
| Quick | 100 | 5 | 3 | 8 |
| Optimum | 200 | 10 | 4 | 14 |
| Accuracy | 400 | 20 | 6 | 26 |
| Hi accuracy | 800 | 40 | 10 | 50 |
*Time of work is measured by the diamonds: symmetrical RBC 0.55 ct or asymmetrical RBC 0.37 ct. Time of build mode depends on quantity of dust on the stone surface and mass and cutting form of stones, it can change from time to time within the limits of 5 sec. Time is measured on Helium Polish system HP 8.5 and computer AMD Dual Core 2.4GHz, 2Gb RAM or Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 2.13Ghz, 4Gb RAM.
