Lost pla casting

Ever hear of Lost PLA Casting, the oddly-named form-additive process that is actually a rather clever (and fascinating) way to make things?

Lost PLA Casting is sort of like re-imagining the process in reverse, where a special 3D printer creates whatever model you desire using a type of easily malleable plastic called PLA - making loss its heat-soluble properties due to it being biodegradable. This model is then very carefully placed into a special enclosure, and investment (a kind of plaster) in poured around it. Using an oven, the whole construction is heated and PLA melts away creating a perfect mold of the original model.

The Precision of Lost PLA Casting

Precision is an important character of manufacturing and among the most precise techniques in production, Lost PLA casting has always been a segment that gets to stand out. After the PLA material evaporated, you will see that an exactly shaped model having all of those little details leading to a perfectly fitting mold. Lost PLA Casting accuracy is essential for both sculptural, jewelry and mechanical components to be made within its initially intended dimensions.

What they (and we) have found is this: the effect Lost PLA Casting has had on manufacturing is nothing less than transformative. Metals and other materials going through the fabrication process were once processed by several machines and tools to get an output. On the other hand, by casting via means of lost PLA with a 3D printer and plaster, complex shapes can be made quickly. This accessibility allows anyone fascinated by making things to play and invent their creativity, without the stresses of expensive kit.
