Filament for burnout - Investment casting

[DanielMargot 0]

Hello everyone, I am new to 3D printing so please excuse me if the answer to my question is already well known. Many of the parts I design are being investment cast. I am wondering if there is a filament material that can be burnt out once my 3D printed part has been set in ceramic so that I can go ahead and cast it. I understand that I could just print a die and injection fill it with wax but if I can print in a material that can be burnt away CLEANLY it would save me a lot of time for prototyping.

Regards

Dan

Happy burning

I have come to prefer Print2Cast wax filament.  It was a little more tricky to get used to printing with than MoldLay, but the burnout was noticeably cleaner.

For the print2cast wax, what settings did you use?

Interesting. Which printer did you use?
