Almax Industries - Diamond pressure cells for high pressure research groups .

Four generations of experience in diamonds and diamond pressure cells have led to our current know-how. Started as a gem diamond polishing company, Almax diversified in the seventies into industrial diamond applications. Stimulated by our customers, our efforts were oriented more and more towards optical applications of natural diamonds. We supply diamond anvils to
highpressure research groups and original equipment manufacturers of cells spectrometers. Convinced by the benefits of the new diamond material of the future, we started working with C.V.D. diamond in the nineties. The applications of C.V.D. diamond are numerous. Almax sticks to those applications which have an optical dimension.

Almax Industries is located near Antwerp, the world diamond trading centre. This gives us access to an enormous market of rough natural diamonds. We evaluate diamond according to several selection criteria (high pressure cells ). Tell us the purity, colour, fluorescence, birefringence or type of diamond you want, and we will supply you the right diamond for your application. We also collaborate with several research and development labs around the world for synthetic diamond ( high pressure cells ). Whether they manufacture polycrystalline diamond through hotpressing or C.V.D.-techniques, or whether they grow monocrystalline diamond, they all have one thing in common: man-made diamond. It depends very much upon your application whether we can advise you to use one of these synthetic alternatives for natural diamond.

With our state-of-the-art machinery in combination with the craftsmanship of our polishers, we are capable of manufacturing high quality diamond anvils and windows. With three-dimensional lasercutting and automatic polishing technology, we prepare diamond anvils for the final finishing step. This finishing step provides us the optical surface quality of the diamond and high pressure cells. Control and in-process measuring make sure that we reach the most demanding dimensional tolerances.
