World's Largest Diamond Producer Select Zwicks Machine to Optimize Diamond-Mining Process

De Beers, the world's largest diamond producer, is using a Zwick compression testing machine to analyze how diamonds break during mining. When using software packages to simulate diamond breakage during mining processes, an important characteristic is the breakage function. This distribution gives a measure of how easily a diamond is damaged and has, until now, not been fully quantified.
