Stone Dispensing Setting Machine vs Traditional Prong Setting Machine — Key Differences
Process :
The jewelry production process involves setting the diamonds into a wax mold first. The diamonds are held in place by prongs surrounding each cavity. Once the stones are securely in position, the mold is removed, and the final product undergoes polishing to create the finished jewelry piece.
Stone Dispensing Setting Machine
Process：
This machine’s production process is entirely different from the wax setting method. First, the jewelry piece is fully crafted and polished. Afterward, glue is applied, and diamonds are set in place, with the adhesive holding the stones securely instead of using prongs.
Technology and Software of the SuperbMelt Stone Dispensing Setting Machine
Software System:
- User-friendly operating interface, easy to operate and navigate.
- Supports Chinese/English language switch to meet different user language requirements.
- Equipped with an in-house developed industrial-grade motion control system, which is feature-rich and enables precise monitoring of various process parameters.
Artificial Vision Motion Control Platform:
The software’s visual recognition positioning and stone hole processing can effectively reduce processing errors and achieve high-precision fixed-point drilling and dispensing.
Visual System:
Supports CCD programming, saving the cost of manual teaching time.
Automatic needle alignment system, effectively improving the positioning accuracy of the machine head.

1. What is a stone dispensing setting machine and how does it work?
A stone dispensing setting machine automates two jewelry production steps — glue dispensing and gemstone placement — in a single integrated process. Unlike traditional prong setting, the jewelry piece is fully crafted and polished first. Adhesive is then precisely dispensed into each stone slot, and the gemstone is placed and secured by the glue rather than metal prongs. This method is faster and allows stone placement on designs where prong setting would be difficult or impossible.
2. What is the difference between a stone dispensing setting machine and a traditional diamond setting machine?
A traditional stone/diamond setting machine sets stones into a wax mold before casting — prongs around each cavity hold the stones in place during the casting and polishing process. A stone dispensing setting machine works on already-finished, polished jewelry: glue is applied to each setting position, and the stone is placed and bonded by adhesive instead of prongs. This allows stone setting on completed pieces and supports designs not achievable with wax-mold prong setting.
3. What types of stones can the machine set?
The machine is compatible with diamonds, cubic zirconia (CZ), and other small gemstones commonly used in fashion and fine jewelry. Stone size compatibility depends on the suction drill bit configuration — please provide your stone size range when ordering so the appropriate drill bit setup can be configured.
4. How does the smart empty-slot detection feature work?
The machine’s visual recognition system scans each setting position before dispensing. If a slot is empty (no stone present, due to upstream casting defects or design variation), the system skips glue dispensing for that position automatically, preventing wasted adhesive. The system also identifies missed positions and automatically completes them in a follow-up pass, ensuring complete, consistent coverage across every production batch.
5. Can the machine handle 3D and curved jewelry designs, or only flat pieces?
Yes. The five-axis linkage worktable rotates 360 degrees without restriction, supporting flat designs, three-dimensional pieces, large-angle settings, and large-arc structures. This is a key advantage over simpler 3-axis or 2-axis stone setting equipment, which is typically limited to flat or near-flat jewelry surfaces.
6. What level of operator training is required?
The machine is designed for simple two-step operation: load material and press start for standard production runs. New operators typically reach working proficiency within 1–2 days. For custom programming using the visual recognition (CCD) system, SuperbMelt provides remote video training to reduce the manual teaching time typically required for new product setups.
7. What is the production speed, and does it vary by job type?
Production speed ranges from 6,000 to 11,000 pieces per hour depending on stone size, design complexity, and the specific setting pattern. Simpler flat designs with standard stone sizes achieve higher throughput; complex 3D designs with varied stone placement run at the lower end of this range. Contact our team with your specific product specifications for an accurate throughput estimate.
8. What certifications does the machine carry, and what after-sales support is available?
The SuperbMelt Stone Dispensing Setting Machine is ISO, CE, and SGS certified. After-sales support includes remote video training on the visual recognition and five-axis control system, technical troubleshooting support, and spare parts supply. Contact our team for warranty terms specific to your region.
