Castable

Castable pellets are essential materials in the realm of 3D printing, specifically tailored for applications where intricate, precise casting patterns are required. These pellets are formulated to be compatible with various casting processes, including investment casting, where a pattern is encased in a refractory material and then burnt away, leaving behind a cavity to be filled with molten metal. Castable pellets offer high dimensional accuracy, intricate detailing, and minimal shrinkage during the casting process, ensuring precise reproduction of the intended design.

The versatility of castable pellets extends to their compatibility with a wide range of metals, including precious metals like gold, silver, and platinum, as well as base metals like aluminum and bronze. This compatibility allows users to create casting patterns for jewelry, dental prosthetics, industrial components, and artistic creations with exceptional fidelity and detail. Moreover, castable pellets can be used in conjunction with various FGF solutions such as desktop extruders for filament fabrication, robot extruders, complete LFAM solutions or hybrid 3D printers that can work with both pellets and filament.

In the jewelry industry, castable pellets are widely utilized for creating intricate designs and custom pieces with precise detailing. From engagement rings to pendants and earrings, castable pellets enable jewelers to bring their creative visions to life with unparalleled accuracy and craftsmanship. Additionally, in the dental sector, castable pellets are employed for fabricating crowns, bridges, and dental prosthetics with precise fits and lifelike aesthetics. With their exceptional dimensional accuracy and compatibility with various casting materials, castable pellets play a crucial role in advancing the capabilities of additive manufacturing in producing high-quality casting patterns for diverse applications.
