Introducing

CeraCaster®

High-resolution industrial-grade manufacturing of practically all metal types.
The CeraCaster® allows for the creation of highly detailed and complex shapes that would be difficult or impossible to produce using traditional manufacturing techniques.

CeraCaster A4020 is a revolutionary industrial-grade 3D printer with user-friendly features such as easy delivery and installation, a large printing area and ethernet and WiFi connectivity for flexible, remote operation. The A4020 is the cost-effective solution for any business already established in, or looking to enter, the world of 3D printing.

Fits the needs of large established companies...

3D printing in combination with the lost-wax method offers several potential benefits.

It allows for the creation of highly complex and customizable designs without large initial investments.
It can be a highly efficient production method, allowing for the rapid creation of multiple parts or products in a short amount of time.

It can also be a more environmentally friendly production method, since it can reduce the need for raw materials and minimize waste. An important consideration for companies that are looking to reduce their environmental impact.

...as well as small entrepreneurial businesses.

The CeraCaster® allows for the creation of highly detailed and complex shapes that would be difficult or impossible to produce using traditional manufacturing techniques. That is particularly useful for small companies that need to produce custom parts or products that have unique features or designs.

The lost-wax method typically requires a high degree of labor and skill, but with 3D printing, the wax model can be quickly and easily created, reducing the time and cost associated with the process.

3D printing allows for greater design flexibility as changes to the design of the wax model can be made quickly and easily.

3Dialog offers comprehensive support for businesses entering the 3D printing world

In addition to producing high-quality parts for our customers, we also offer a range of services to help them get started with 3D printing.

Our three service centers offer educational and practical support for businesses looking to enter the 3D printing world. We can help with everything from initial sketches on a napkin to finished 3D models, and even 3D scanning.
"With the customer at the center, 3Dialog enters the 3D market as a new player and a tough competitor who wants to meet all customer expectations.

We offer new qualities at the best imaginable
production economics for everything from prototypes to series production."

Lost Wax Process

”Investment casting has stood the test of time. As one of the world’s oldest manufacturing methods, it’s still mainly used for the low-volume production. Additive manufacturing is improving the process and increasing its efficiency.

Traditionally, investment casting starts when a wax pattern is coated in ceramic slurry, which hardens to create a shell around the pattern. After it is heated, the wax melts and leaves behind a hollow ceramic shell. The shell is filled with molten metal and after it cools, the ceramic material is cracked and blasted off to reveal a completed metal part.

Most common investment casting applications use injection-molded wax patterns with it’s shape limits. With the 3Dialog CeraCaster®, successful serial production of very complex parts is achievable both from a quality and a financial point of view. Our concept offers highly-accurate parts in any metal with extraordinary surface finishes.”
