Lensball Manufacturing Process

10-STEP MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Step 1

Sourcing

Only the highest quality K9 Crystal is ethically sourced from our vetted and trusted supply partners and mines.

Step 2

Diamond Cut Cubes

Diamond blade cutters are utilised to cut larger sourced raw materials into cubes.

Step 3

Heat

Strong heat is utilised with a modulating furnace which can moderate the heat output and air velocity nearly continuously, for the optimal heat required.

Step 4

Shaping (Lapping)

Lapping or grinding of the cube occurs between two metal surfaces of a precision lapping machine which combine for approximately 40 minutes for the ball to start to take shape.

Step 5

Shaping & Polishing

Cup grinders with diamond dust on a polishing machine further refine the perfect ball shape and polish.

Step 6

Further Polishing

Higher and Higher grades of grit polish the ball until a final grade of 40,000 grit is achieved.

Step 7

Finish

Cerium Oxide is applied to the buffing polishing pads finishing and obtaining the ultimate ultra-polished crystal ball.

Step 8

Cool

Modulated cooling is utilised to cool the hot crystal balls in a customized, specific manner so as to avoid imperfections or bubbles forming.

Step 9

Dry

Fans are utilised to ensure the crystal balls are completely dry.

Step 10

Final Inspection

Every lensball is comprehensively tested for any imperfections with any balls not meeting our highest quality standards broken down and recycled back into the manufacturing process.
