Welding and casting in jewelry production made easy with Lampert technology
Here you will find practical tutorials on all aspects of precision welding and casting in jewelry production – from basic welding techniques to the welding of bezel settings, eyelets and prongs to special applications such as reworking collier jewelry or concealed welding – as well as professional casting of rings with the FUSION casting centrifuge. The step-by-step instructions are aimed at goldsmiths and silversmiths who want to expand their craftsmanship know-how with micro TIG welding technology and our innovative ring casting process – as a precise, solder-free alternative to classic joining methods.
Tutorial for ring casting in jewelry making
Step by step to your own cast ring: This tutorial shows goldsmiths, silversmiths and beginners how to achieve professional casting results in gold and silver alloys reproducibly and reliably with the FUSION casting centrifuge.
Forget tedious cutting and cleaning of casting channels. The new Lampert FUSION relies on innovative, sprueless centrifugal casting: the liquid metal flows directly to where it belongs – to the ring, without having to produce and preheat a casting mold beforehand.

Tutorials for welding in jewelry production
From correct electrode guidance to invisible seams: these tutorials provide a practical demonstration of how delicate pieces of jewelry can be joined and shaped precisely and gently using Micro-TIG welding technology.
Pressure, power, pulse duration, … – many factors have an influence on the welding result.
Bezel settings for square stones are held at the correct angle by a few welding points.
A white gold necklace with three stones set in yellow gold in the middle is to be redesigned. The outer settings are to be removed and reworked into earrings, while the middle stone remains in the necklace.
To prepare for the weld, you can use the precision welder to create a thickening on the pin and then weld it to the ear jewelry.
With the PUK, fittings can be installed quickly and easily, even if they are very delicate.
Welding eyelets is easy with Lampert precision welding technology.
Setting stones is particularly low-risk with PUK welding technology.
The PUK can be used to weld parts that must not become hot, such as closures with springs.
Workpieces can be fixed with spot welds instead of binding wire or clamps before they are soldered.
The angle and welding direction of the electrode are essential for a successful weld.
An external seam can be avoided by working on the back of the workpiece.
