PolyCast™ is an easy to print filament designed specifically for investment casting applications. Featuring Ash Free™ Technology, 3D printed patterns in PolyCast™ can be completely vaporized when vitrifying the ceramic investment, typically leaving an ash residue of <0.003% by weight. PolyCast™ significantly cuts down both the cost and lead time by eliminating wax injection mould tooling process.

FAQ

What makes PolyCast™ unique?

PolyCast™ features two unique technologies:

Layer-Free: PolyCast™ can be easily smoothed with IPA for a smoother surface finish which is reflected on the casted model.

Ash-Free: PolyCast™ burns out very cleanly with minimum ash residues.

what is the residue percentage of PolyCast™ after burning?

It is recommended to burn out the printing part at 1000~1200 oC for 1~2 hours. the final ash content is tightly related to the printing part°Øs topological structure as well as the burning condition: please ensure there is enough air blowing when burning out the part, please also ensure the print part°Øs structure is not extremely complicated (for extreme complicated structure, two-times burning may be necessary).
