Galahad Compass. Galahad 1 Mode

Compass Unit and DOP

Galahad Compass - Compass Mode

Galahad Compass is a software-hardware bundle which includes Compass Unit and dop hardware and Galahad Compass software itself. The solution helps to set the correct angles for the diamond in the dop with high precision before polishing the facet, as well as control stages and steps of the polishing. Stages combine steps for polishing facets of the same type. The system has two different modes: Galahad 1 and Compass. In the Galahad 1 mode, the user can view and manage planned stages and underlying steps. In the Compass mode, for the selected step, the slope and azimuth angles are set and then, after polishing, the results are controlled before going to the next step.

Main features
