QuickCast at Realize, Inc.

Using Stereolithography 3D Printing technology, more commonly referred to as SLA, Realize has the ability and expertise to create investment casting patterns for foundries.

Utilizing a highly specialized build-style known as QuickCast, foundries have access to an alternative solution to traditional wax patterns, which can be expensive and time consuming to produce. A Quickcast pattern is an SLA model, but differs in that it has a thin skin that surrounds a matrixed internal structure. Not only does this give the pattern rigidity, but it also allows the structure to collapse upon itself during the burnout process, minimizing the risk of a cracked shell.

QuickCast can provide a smooth and accurate pattern that can be ready for you in days. Time and cost savings can be significant as compared to traditional wax patterns, especially for complex geometries. QuickCast may be the alternative solution for you, and Realize stands ready and eager to help you with your next investment casting project.
