FAQ
CAP to STL Conversion
What are CAP files?
CAP is a scan file of a rough diamond made by Sarine Galaxy, a system that looks inside a rough diamond and maps the flaws that are hidden in it, the inclusions, without cutting any windows into the stone. The file holds the images and the data of the scan, from which the three-dimensional model of the stone is built, with the inclusions shown in their places. It is opened in Sarine Advisor, the planning software, where the manufacturer decides how to cut the stone. Sarine is an Israeli company that makes diamond scanning and planning systems.
What are STL files?
STL is the proprietary format for a computer-aided design (CAD) program developed by 3D Systems. STL is an acronym for Stereolitography, which is a type of technology used for creating prototypes or patterns through 3D printing. An STL file contains a surface representation of such a model, without detailed specifications of aspects such as colours. STL files can only be opened with a limited number of programs.
