Accelerate investment casting workflows and bypass traditional tooling constraints with Somos® ShellCast™, an advanced SLA resin engineered to produce affordable, high-fidelity master patterns for metal castings. Its low viscosity enables easy drainage across complex geometries, and produces thin, hollow-wall structures with exceptional dimensional accuracy and smooth surface finishes.
It's translucent hue enables easy inspection of trapped resin within lattice structures, while the antimony- and phosphorus-free formulation leaves minimal ash residue during burnout, making it ideal for specialty alloy casting in the medical, industrial, aerospace, and defence sectors.
A ScanControl+™ Ready Material: Optimized performance when used with the Neo®800+ printer.
Somos® ShellCast combines low viscosity, high dimensional accuracy and smooth surface quality to produce high-fidelity investment casting master patterns.
From turbine blades and engine components to pump impellers and orthopaedic implants, Somos® ShellCast enables accurate, high-fidelity master patterns for complex investment casting applications.
From aerospace and automotive to industrial manufacturing, Somos® ShellCast™ helps produce high-fidelity investment casting patterns with the accuracy and surface quality needed for complex metal castings.
