  • Today we make synthetic Ruby with Aluminium oxide and Chrome oxide.
    This time we use an arc furnace just like the inventor of the process.

    That is a brilliant ball mill!

    My son would like that, because he gets excited about pirate treasure.

    Hello AKA engineering! I really appreciate your time to make this video. Have you tried to cut the ruby into a gemstone?

      yes i have managed to grind it with a diamond wheel. they are not clear, so a gemstone is not possible. But i want to make durable tools out of it. maybe a knife one day. thats why i try to stick the ruby to a metall. that way i can maybe coat the blade of a knife. i will keep experimenting at the pace my budget allows.

    Hey. Firstly congrats on your rubies. I made a high voltage power supply that gives around 15kv output. But I can’t get any bigger rubies than around 1 mm radius. Your furnace looks like a high current arc welder more than a hv furnace. Idk what to do in order to get bigger rubies. Im open to suggestions. Thanks for sharing.

      the high voltage arc looks good, but the Microwave oven transformer gets to hot after about 2minutes. so i struggle to get bigger rubys myself. i tried an MIG welder and had more success. maybe try a mold made of graphite and heat it with a MIG welder. i want to make a video aout that myself, but it takes time.

      @@akaengineering hey again. I made my rubies using an arc welder. A graphite mold was too expensive for my bugdet so i made a mold fron Ytong. They turned out good but most of them bubbled so they werent fully solid. Thanks for your suggestions.

      @@yusufsahin3278 I tried Ytong too. great insulator, but it melts and the ruby is not pure. the bubble problem should get better, if you heat it for longer. Video part 2 of the ruby making is almost done.
