x5 Bluecast for SLA Formlaba

This will work on Laser Technology Systems, Formlabds Moai etc

Introduction

BCX5 is the latest castable resin for Formlabs and SLA, suitable for jewelry where extreme precision and accuracy are required.

The main features are:

– Custom syntetized oligomer by BlueCast, not available to market,
patent is going to be applied.
– Excellent casting of small engravings both positive and negative
– Fits all jewelry needs from filigree to medals as well dental ones
– Excellent for stones presetting
– Curing triggering tuned to maximize antialias smoothing
– No monomer inside, no smell
– No aggression on plastic parts (tested on PS, PMMA)
– No postcuring needed for casting
– No shrinkage
– No primer needed
– Less sprueing needed, oxygen for burnout is released by resin during
burnout (less scrap metal, less work on metal)
– Easy welding with wax, forget about pattern lost into investment
– Can be polished, engraved, drilled (postcure is needed)
– Low viscosity, easier to recover uncured resin from models, easy to wash
– No preheating required
– Very little hygroscopic while liquid, no water absorption while printed
– Atoxic, solvent free, very low phospine content, very low skin irritant
– Fast and detailed
– Hard but elastic, good compression set
– Cleaner burnout, 0,00% ash residual
– Solvent free
– Suitable for fast burnout
– Full burnout also at lower temperature (750 C°)
– No expansion during burnout, sublimation starts at 108.33 Celsius
– Burnout will not release agrressive chemicals to investment (80% of
burnout is composed by carbon dioxide and water and oxygen that is
used to complete combustion)
– Low tension surface (better surface, no need to treat models with
spray or dip baths)
– Excellent dimensional stability in time, no need to stock in cold/dark places
– Available for low power LCD, DLP and laser printers
– Shelf life 2 years
