Technical overview table
Pattern quality, burnout behavior and casting results depend on the interaction between the selected resin, printer type, exposure settings, investment protocol and the downstream burnout and casting procedure.
| Material | Printer type | Pattern removal | Form | Key data | Typical applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Perfect Cast LPP | Low power SLA / DLP / LCD | Direct burnout | Liquid | Viscosity <30 cps, residual ash <0.0001%, no expansion during burnout | Jewelry casting patterns, dental casting, high-detail micro-casting |
| Perfect Cast HPP | High power SLA / DLP / monochrome LCD | Direct burnout | Liquid | Viscosity <30 cps, residual ash <0.0001%, ultra high resolution | Jewelry casting patterns, dental casting, precision casting components |
| Perfect Cast WS1 | SLA / DLP / LCD | Water or steam dissolution before burnout | Liquid | Viscosity <30 cps, Shore D80, HDT >100 C | Complex hollow geometries, micro-casting with internal evacuation |
| Perfect Cast HS1 Bio | Top-down SLA / DLP with temperature control | Gravity melt-out | Bio-based solid wax | Negligible ash, very low melt viscosity, full mold evacuation | Wax-like casting patterns, relatively thick casting geometries |
| Perfect Cast HS2 MF Bio | Heated top-down and bottom-up SLA / DLP / LCD | Melting or thermal degradation during burnout | Bio-based monomer-free liquid | Thermoplastic after curing, melting range >100-200 C (workflow dependent) | Fine-detail and thick casting geometries, meltable patterns |

Selection logic
How to choose the right castable resin
Select the most suitable grade according to whether your priority is jewelry casting detail, industrial precision, sacrificial pattern behavior or complex geometry reproduction.
- Need a resin for jewelry investment casting → choose the grade positioned for fine-detail casting patterns
- Need precision sacrificial patterns for industrial casting → choose the grade aligned with dimensional stability and process repeatability requirements
- Need support for indirect manufacturing workflows → select the grade optimized for sacrificial pattern use
- Need complex fine-detail geometries with controlled burnout positioning → choose the most appropriate castable route for the downstream casting process
Castable performance depends on the full pattern-to-casting workflow
Even with castable pattern materials, final results depend on printer calibration, exposure strategy, washing conditions, post-curing control, investment protocol and the downstream burnout and casting procedure.
These materials are best interpreted as process-linked tools for indirect manufacturing where printed part quality and casting workflow control must be aligned from the beginning.
Engineering note
These materials are intended for sacrificial pattern production, investment casting and indirect manufacturing workflows. Final success depends not only on print quality but also on the investment, burnout and casting conditions used after printing.
Interpretation principle
These products should be understood as castable photopolymer routes for precision sacrificial applications. Final suitability depends on the printer, exposure strategy, geometry complexity and the exact downstream casting workflow used by the customer.
