Introduction

This document contains the QuickCast™ cleaning and post-processing procedures. QuickCast is the trademark name for investment casting master patterns printed on 3D Systems SLA printers. QuickCast is a SLA 3D printing build style trademarked by 3D Systems and was created to meet the needs of the investment casting industry. The QuickCast build style consists of a hollow SLA pattern with an open infill structure that adds strength to the pattern, allows for easy drainage, and facilitates collapse of the pattern during burnout to help avoid shell cracking. QuickCast patterns offer invaluable shrink and gating information prior to hard tooling, large pattern size, smooth surfaces, and accelerated timelines over tooling to create wax patterns.
