Parfect is leading the industry in Lost wax casting, investment casting, ;one of specialized manufacturer and exporter of steel casting,ductile iron casting,carbon steel casting,gray iron casting and so on . ...Contact us for your high quality...

This requries real metal casting tools I have been playing with lost wax casting, and I made some working molds in plastic cups, but they needed a sort of funnel to work proper, and that wasn't always easy to add if the sprue of the wax item wasn't...

I have slowly been making the equipment needed to do lost wax casting. I am making a 4in flask and decided to go ahead and make the rubber sprue base. This is made for a 4in O.D. flask. But it could be scaled to any dimension. Obviously printed in...

... back, I dont recommend making one but you do what you do... theres a locating point for drilling to make a fuse hole.. I printed it standing up with support. 0.2mm layers work fine, I used moldlay wax filament and will be casting it in bronze.

Wax Impeller, for casting in stainless steel using the lost wax process. The wax was injected in two parts and then glued. This was done to improve the quality of the final casting. The previous method used a mixture of normal wax and what is known...

... like silicone. I still haven't tried printing it so if you notice any problems let me know. This mold was originally intended for lost wax casting but you could use it with just about any air hardening substance like chocolate for example...

I use one with 80 mm diameter (Update: 60.3 mm added) - and I wanted to use it for lost-wax-casting with a wax sprue. You can use 9 mm sprues for example those, that were casted with my mold. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4082778 I first...

This workshop is based on lost foam casting technology. ...The annual capacity is 3000 tons a year.

molds for wax candles

I 3d printed the apollo astronaut then I casted trought investment casting. ...This was the result.

In the summer I began an experiment to determine if 3D printed PLA molds could be used to create wax positive for lost wax casting. My early experiments with simply cylindrical forms were fairly successful. Four part molds, 3d printed with support...

Note that this is more of an "instructable" than a "thing", but I think based on my successful Lost PLA 3D printed castings that it hopefully will have wide appeal to this community. ...I have documented the Lost PLA process used with this furnace...

DIY Sand casting kit

This is a complete documentary of the process I use to transform a 3D printed PLA part to a machine ready aluminum alloy casting: http://youtu.be/WWVVSZP3Au4 Short version: http://youtu.be/0bxOzCgUj_U The furnace used for this documentary is here:...

This project's intent is to combine a used drink can and re-purpose it into a cheap diy wax foundry for intention of recycling wax materials with the help of a 3D printer. Project comes with a 3d printable handle for a 250ml can and a 355ml can.

One year ago, I made this little experiment of making a sandcasting mold from a 3D printed figurine of myself (yeah, I know...) It worked very well, so I decided to create a 3D printable sand casting kit to help people do the same. The kit includes a...

Turbine model taken from open source library and specifically modified to decrease the shrinkage when used in lost polymer casting.

Mold for a polystyrene model of some detail.In the future, the foam polystyrene model is usedto obtain the required metal part by casting(casting on gasified models of foam polystyrene- lost foam casting).

This is just an example of a lost wax base that would be molded in silicone after printed, not for actual use and is extremely experimental. its a 80mm cone that was chopped and had cylinders subtracted, then subtracted the modified cone from a...

#1: print the models attached in PLA; only 1 perimeter and 5% infill #2: glue together with hotglue, like shown in 3D screenshot pouring basin is inspired by this thing from VegOilGuy: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3619744 #3: add drinking...

This is my non professional approach to extend 3D printing for myself to create metal objects using the "lost PLA" method. I try to write up the way which worked for me, including the objects I used for printing. This is not intended for direct...

Here is a link to our video were we do lost pla casting with it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilTmXVg9oc8&feature=youtu.be . I installed my new pewter plate and it works a treat. I would do aluminium if I had a good hot foundry setup. Print...

This is a quick feeder and vent setup I made for lost PLA casting.  For me, I print these, attach them to a 3d printed model I want to print.  Then coat it with joint compound, let that dry.  Encase it in sand with sodium silicate.

To most Thingyiverse users this will mean nothing, but to some who follow [my YouTube Channel](https://www.youtube.com/vegoilguy), this is the Casting Tree that I demonstrate in the video - shown below. It fits perfectly on a steel flask that has...

The quality and resolution of your master model will represent the quality of your final cast parts! I also definitely recommend using a pipette for filling the mould cavity with resin. The mould could be gravity filled if the stream is thin...

Those familiar with John Campbell's Casting Handbook will be aware of the concept of a tapered sprue and pouring basin, devices typically included in sand casting to reduce porosity, prevent metal contamination and smooth the flow. I have taken...
