Windform® PS
Areas of Applications
-
Complex investment casting patterns
- Casting with highly reactive alloys, besides typical cast alloys
The casting structure is formed of an aggregate of grains or polyhedral crystallites which produce isotropy compensation, while in a solid metal they are anisotropic: it is obvious that isotropy has great advantages, for instance, FEM calculations are very close to the real behaviour of the part thanks to the isotropy of the piece
Moreover, Rapid Casting with laser sintered patterns allows complete shape conception freedom (no even supports needed): thus reducing undercut and tool path problems during CNC machining.
It’s therefore possible to create the product along its mechanical stress axes, and to obtain a perfect reproduction of all details of the RP pattern, with tolerances and surface finishing of a very high quality (such as fully machined parts).
