MOLD MATERIALS
Machinable Wax
Formulated & manufactured by Freeman, this unique medium is an extremely hard synthetic wax that machines faster than polyurethane and epoxy tooling boards or metals without sacrificing quality of finish, surface detail, or dimensional accuracy.
| Application | Molds and prototypes:creates accurate reproductions CNC: demonstrations or proofing machining programs Education: as a training aid and project material Medical/Dental: molds for proton therapy or dental work |
| Features | Non-abrasive:Unlike metal and tooling boards that can cause significant wear on cutting tools. User-friendly:Machining produces chips instead of dust for a cleaner work environment. Self-releasing/self-sealing:Pour liquid tooling plastics(including epoxy, urethane and silicone rubber) into Machinable Wax without requiring the use of sealers or release agents. Able to be glued:Produces large or irregularly shaped pieces for machining with the use of 3M #90 Spray Adhesive. Self-lubricating:Enables all machining operations to be formed without the need for coolants or cutting fluids. Wide variety of sizes:Eliminates the waste associated with using large tooling boards for smaller projects. |
