Casting into a 3D Printed Mold - Mack4d Tiko-H
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
A weird suggestion came into our inbox a couple weeks ago from our friends over at Mack4D. Marc this one is for you! Trying to die cast with a 3D Printed die mold using aluminum.
A bonus we also 3D printed molds for wax injection.
Don't try this one at home guys. The fumes from the smouldering plastic are no joke. As a casting channel we always recommend looking into proper ventilation and PPE.

Instead of printing the mould or mould frame for vulcanising, the absolute best use case that I've found is to print the models that I will then use in a vulcaniser, that way I don't need to cast it in metal first. I use Siraya Sculpt for that exact purpose, though the grey formulation isn't so great at the temps needed for regular silicones, and i have to bake it at much lower temps for longer.
Yes another interesting video.
awesome !!
could you use this to cast bismuth?

Yes, that would work

Could you use this material to cast low temp metals like bismuth, most likely yes. However, as we mentioned in the video, does it make sense for a business process when you might only be able to get 2 to 3 moulds out of every bottle that we’re unsure of.
