MatrixGold 4.0
Offline mode
Work for up to 12 hours without an internet connection after logging in. Keep designing – while traveling, on location, or in environments with unstable connectivity.
Hollowing out a ring
Reduce design weight in no time. Hollow out the geometry while keeping wall thickness constant – resulting in lighter, structurally sound components without any manual processing.
Technical Report
Structured technical data in a clearer, more readable format – providing designers, customers and production teams with exactly what they need for approval and further progress.
Wall thickness analysis
Click on any point to instantly measure the wall thickness and receive real-time feedback on production readiness.
Duplicate
Duplicate parametric commands while retaining existing values – this saves time and eliminates repeated setup work.
Edit multiple prongs
Edit prongs on a large scale – select and adjust multiple prongs at once to speed up completion.
Trapezoid Baguette
Place conical baguettes between two curves, determining the size of each stone as you wish. Always clean, controlled arrangements.
Creating Gemstones
Create custom stones with a complete parametric history . Refine the cut at every stage – without the need to create it from scratch.
New Stone Shapes
Three new cuts have been added to the gemstone library: diamond, hexagon, and trapezoid.
Award signet ring
Precisely add text, shapes, and individual details to the surfaces of signet rings. A structured workflow for complex signet rings.
Curve on object
Place curves directly onto any surface, ensuring they follow its shape exactly – for precise and controlled design placement.
Gemstone label
This tool adds the size and other details of each stone in the scene and helps to determine the exact position of the set stones.
