Getting finning on photopolymers?




One good fix for this is use a 1,600 degree burnout rather than the suggested 1250. Docs will fuse into a far stronger material and withstand the expansion pressure presented by resin models. Thanks to Manuel Novo for this tip which came from a new ultra smooth product from Envision. The new material is a kind of orange color and is very highly detailed. The picture is just a good casting done in Docs and 95oPd.

Docs and the newest growing CAD materials

As new materials come into play for CAD models, be sure to review the CAD instructions for Docs. Long hot burnouts will be the order of the day. Docs can take the 1600 degree heat for this and maintain it's strength. This way you are far less likely to have any plaster break off and become inclusion porosity. 
There are many investment plasters for casting. Few can handle platinum, palladium and high-temperature white golds well. Fewer still that can withstand the expansion and difficulties some cad models present or certain design challenges. Even fewer investments can do all of the above and allow same-day casting . Docs is the answer to all the above. Docs users also enjoy a high level of tech support. The Docs sales rep has decades of experience in casting precious metals. So, call Daniel at 213-675-6178 to fill in the details and get Docs into your supply room.
