The SiOmaster resin makes it possible to 3D print master models that can handle high-temperature silicone rubber vulcanization up to 180°C without distortion or breakage. This durability allows companies to reuse their master models multiple times, creating consistent molds. Regarding processes like spin casting in metal or injection molding for plastic parts, 3D printing starts as a way to transform a digital model into a physical object. SiOmaster resin ensures an exact reproduction of all details of the model. Beyond its precise printing capabilities, this resin maintains a balanced level of flexibility, which is crucial during the silicone vulcanization process. Other 3D printing resins may crack under high pressure or deform at elevated temperatures, leading to flawed molds. SiOmaster strikes the right balance, offering enough flexibility to withstand pressure and ample temperature resistance to stay rigid at higher temperatures. This prevents delicate details from breaking during vulcanization, preserving the dimensional accuracy of the final parts.
AmeraLabs SiOmaster Grey resin was developed for professionals utilizing spin casting and SiOCAST injection molding machines. SiOmaster resin allows you to 3D print master models that can withstand a high-temperature silicone rubber vulcanization process up to 180°C multiple times without breaking or deforming. This enables companies to reuse their master models multiple times to produce several molds.
Follow the silicone manufacturer’s instructions for the correct vulcanization times and temperatures. Also, de-gas the molds according to the silicone manufacturer’s guidelines. Use a releasing agent to prevent the masters from sticking to the silicone rubber. Finally, regularly check the parallelism of your vulcanisation machine and mold frames.
This resin is compatible with most LCD and DLP resin 3D printers equipped with light sources emitting 385-420nm UV light. It is compatible with both colour and monochrome LCD 3D printers.
We have recommended 3D printing settings for many 3D printers here: AmeraLabs resin settings.
SiOmaster resin works perfectly with SiOmold silicones from SiOCAST.
We have also tried several other silicones from different manufacturers and had no issues with any of them.
We were able to make molds with silicones vulcanized at temperatures ranging from 90° to 180° C.
This 3D material should not be left submerged in solvents for extended periods of time. By all means, do not leave the material submerged in IPA or any other liquid for more than 40 minutes. Doing so might ruin your models and affect the final properties of the polymer material.
leave the printed object submerged in IPA for approx. 12 minutes. Depending on the results, you can repeat this step again and leave for additional 6 minutes.
If you prefer cleaning with ordinary IPA baths, this is our easy four-step cleaning procedure:
If you prefer cleaning with an ultrasonic cleaner, we recommend placing a printed part into the container with IPA, closing it well, and putting the container into the ultrasonic cleaner filled with water. Leave it for no more than 10 minutes. No additional heating is necessary.
With a proper support strategy, support removal is easy. Use a high density of supports with 0.2 – 0.6 mm tips. Since printed models are a bit soft before post-curing, you will be able to peel off your supports easily.
A few more tips:
Post-curing time depends on your curing station. It can vary from five minutes to one hour (until the surface of your 3D print becomes non-sticky). You should post-cure immediately after cleaning and drying. After proper post-curing, the surface of SiOmaster printed resin models should be completely non-sticky and hard to scratch.
Models that are post-cured longer will be stiffer and have lower flexibility. So if you find that some of your 3D printed masters bend during vulcanization, try post-curing the 3D printed models longer. This will make them stiffer and help with maintaining accurate geometries.
On the other hand, models that were post-cured for a very long time will handle fewer vulcanization cycles before breaking.
