  • My piece is expanding after casting with X-One, what I am doing wrong?
    To ensure the most accurate casting results, please follow the correct procedure outlined below: Do not prescale the file. Please note that the printed patterns may appear approximately 1-1.5% smaller compared to the original design. This size difference will remain constant over time and will not shrink further. Wash the prints using Ethyl alcohol 99° and an ultrasonic cleaner for 3 minutes. If using IPA (Isopropyl alcohol), wash for 3 minutes without the ultrasonic cleaner. Utilize compressed air to thoroughly dry the pattern. Apply a fresh coat of alcohol over the patterns using a spray. Once again, use compressed air to remove any excess alcohol. Proper washing is of utmost importance to ensure casting accuracy. If immediate investment of the models is required after printing, it is suggested to perform 10 minutes of UV curing. However, if time allows, waiting for 20-30 minutes before casting eliminates the need for UV curing altogether. During the investing procedure, the pattern will experience a growth of 1-1.5%, resulting in cast parts that perfectly match the STL file. Following these guidelines will help achieve precise and reliable casting outcomes.
  • How do I import the printing profiles into Chitubox?
  • Do I need to cure under UV light?
    Generally, no. But please refer to the specific resin page you will be using for accurate information.
  • Is a 2-hour burnout possible?
    The ultra-fast burnout (2 hrs at 700°C) has been validated for X-One and X-Filigree V2 only. If using other BlueCast castable resins, adhere to the standard burnout schedule (fast burnout is possible for X5 and X10). After completing the burnout, it is recommended to gradually decrease the temperature to the casting temperature to avoid cracks caused by differential thermal expansion between the flask and investment.

  • How do I prepare the resin for printing?
    TEMPERATURE - Our resins contain a significant amount of waxy polymers, which can increase their viscosity. Preheating the resin helps dissolve these waxy polymers, reducing viscosity, minimizing peeling forces, and ultimately improving printing quality. Generally, the optimal operating range for preheating is between 20°C and 30°C. AGITATION - Shaking the resin thoroughly ensures that all the different components are well-mixed. This enhances reactivity, particularly when the resin has been unused for an extended period.
