1: print model
By injecting a special casting wax into the metal mold, the traditional process can be realized. At present, 3D model printing technology is used, and castings can be directly printed with wax or casting resin.
2. Mold assembly
Assemble the printed castings on the casting tree, so that multiple jewelry products can be cast at one time. Some 3D printing can directly print out the model or spanning tree without this step.
3. Mould shell manufacturing
After the whole assembly is completed, immerse the whole set of parts in the mud for many times. After drying, the slurry coating will solidify to form a ceramic outer layer covering the surface of the workpiece.
4: Bake the shell
Put in a melting furnace to melt or burn out the original wax/resin structure to form a hollow injection mold (cavity).
5: pouring
When all the original materials are taken out of the ceramic cavity, the castable material is injected into the mold, cooled and solidified. Metal parts are generally cast by metals such as K, silver and copper, and then plated with precious metals after finishing.
Stop it
Remove the external ceramic mold and knock off the shell by vibrating the mold.
7: cut off
After removing the ceramic shell, take out the casting from the mold frame.
8: Tidy up
Finally, according to the design requirements, jewelry production is completed.
There are certainly some requirements for 3D printing technology to successfully produce castable jewelry molds. For example, must we choose photons? Mono? x? 6k, a 3d printing device, can present a very high level of detail and precision as well as complex functional components. Then, choose 3D printing consumables with stable and fast response speed.
