issue related to coat drying is completely removed allowing much faster creation of the shell. In some cases, reducing the time by 75%.


Why This was Not Possible with Previous Additive Manufacturing Technologies? “The Admatec 3D printer has taken the investment casting prototype manufacturing to the next level. Its simplicity and ease of operation are unmatched compared to traditional pattern 3D printing,” Jack Ziemba stated. Initially, the Admatec team worked


closely with Aristo-Cast in order to tailor the ceramic formula to match the required shell formulation. Resulting in Admatec developing a material for investment casting suitable for additive manufacturing and compatible with the process to successfully 3D print shells. Secondly, the combination of the material with the DLP technology used by Admatec enabled Aristo-Cast to print intrinsic geometries with high accuracy


and extremely thin wall thickness. Jack Ziemba, explains, “The


reduction in material used, allowed a more consistent isotropic shrinkage of the final part and the ability to print a perfect hollow surface from the inside of the Shell allowing easier removal of the core.” He adds, “With the Admatec technology, anybody that is able to melt metal could become an investment caster.”


“Here at Admatec, we strive to assist


customers with custom made solutions through our expertise in material and machine development. If you’re looking for a partner to improve or develop new solutions with ceramic and metal additive manufacturing, we’d like to hear from you!” said Jaco Saurwalt COO at Admatec.


Cost Savings with the New Process The savings in costs vary widely, being determined by the complexity of the part produced, but can be easily 50% lower than a traditionally


produced casting. Admatec investment casting solutions are now open to the market and available for the casting companies to take advantage of it. For more information please contact info@ admateceurope.com. “We’re only scratching the surface


on the advantages that shell printing can bring,” Jack Ziemba stated.
