JerryRigEverything takes us on a tour of an Industrial diamond manufacturing facility. US Synthetic in Utah uses massive presses to put immense pressure on diamond dust until it is one large solid synthetic diamond disk. “It only takes about a million pounds worth of pressure.”
Diamonds are much more than shiny rocks for wedding bands. From the video, “Nearly 15 billion carats’ worth of synthetic industrial diamonds are purchased each year. These black diamonds are used for industrial drilling rigs, or to make frictionless rotating bearings that last decades. Also… US Synthetic manufactures diamond-tipped 3D Printing nozzles called DiamondBacks.”
