PolyCastâ„¢
PolyCastâ„¢ is a filament designed to produce investment patterns for investment casting applications. 3D printing significantly cuts down both the cost and lead time by eliminating the tooling process.
PolyCastâ„¢ features Polymaker’s Layer-Freeâ„¢ technology and Polymaker’s Ash-Freeâ„¢ technology:
Layer-Freeâ„¢ – Layer-Freeâ„¢ technology involves exposing a 3D printed part to an aerosol of micro-sized alcohol droplets, generated by a rapidly vibrating, perforated membrane called the nebulizer. The aerosol will then be adsorbed by the surface of the 3D printed part and render it smooth and layer-free.
Ash-Freeâ„¢ – Ash-Freeâ„¢ technology allows Polymaker’s filament which has been designed for investment casting to burn off cleanly without any residue, enabling defect-free metal parts. 3D printing has been used to produce investment casting patterns as it cuts down both the cost and lead time for small-volume production runs.
Features:
No Ash – PolyCastâ„¢ burns off cleanly without any residue, enabling defect-free metal parts
Low Cost – PolyCastâ„¢ is a cost-effective solution, with a lower cost compared to other 3D printing technologies (e.g. SLA/DLP/SLS).
Effortless Post-processing – PolyCastâ„¢ can be effortlessly post-processed in the Polysherâ„¢ (sold separately) reducing layering and delivering superior surface quality.
Easy-to-print – PolyCastâ„¢ is compatible with most 3D printers, printing under similar conditions to PLA with no heated bed or chamber required.
Uncompromised Quality: Polymakers leading quality control process and rigorous in-house testing, ensure reliable printing and consistency across spools and batches.
