Gold Star Metacast
Metacast has been extensively tried & tested in some of the most renown factories throughout the world, to offer continued improvement on direct casting of 3D printed resin or wax models, from all types of resin and 3D printing manufacturers for castings far more superior than just optimal results.
Evolving – what makes Metacast significantly better than other manufacturers of investment powder is the ability to fast fire a single flask, within 6 hours from mixing the investment powder to obtaining a clean smooth surface casting. This has also vastly improved an already outstanding clean off after casting.
Fast Fire burnout cycle
High temperature burnout resistance
Consistently smooth surfaces
Easy Clean Off
Delicate details, replicated time and time again
Technical Specification
Do not burnout until a minimum of 90 minutes after investing. During this 90 minute period flasks should not be touched, this includes stripping bases and removing vacuum tape.
Do not load flasks into a hot furnace. Always follow the recommended burnout cycle and never place flasks closer than 15mm to elements. Always ensure you do not over or under load your furnace, as this will affect the burnout cycle.
Do not remove flasks from furnace to cast until they have been held at casting temperature for a minimum of 1 hour.
If held for less than 1 hour,
the core of the flasks will be at a much higher temperature than the digital temperature display states, and may result in metal mould reaction.
