By the company’s order, who specializes in modern furniture and home-accessory manufacturing, the ring was 3D printed to be used for casting.
A 3D printed part supposed to have high accuracy and surface quality as possible which is why 3D printer “Form 2” based on SLA technology was chosen. Resing was chosen based on availability to achieve the highest possible surface quality.
The 3D printed ring was post-processed by the customer and used as a master to produce a casting mold. The end-use part was cast from brass and met all requirements. SLA technology, as an additive manufacturing, is becoming more and more popular to produce master-mold parts as they have very high-quality aspects and suitable to make casting molds because of low cost and short lead time.
