BlueCast Resin X-Filigree V2 (0.5KG)

BlueCast X-Filigree V2 - Precision Castable Resin for Extreme Filigrees

BlueCast X-Filigree V2 is the precision castable resin developed specifically to meet the needs of Middle Eastern designers and for printing extremely thin and light models. This V2 version improves on the performance of the previous one, ensuring perfect printing properties , sharp details And excellent dimensional stability over time with zero shrinkage .

Version V2 Improvements

X-Filigree V2 introduces significant updates compared to version V1:

• Special Wax Polymer : Advanced formula ensures flawless printing properties and sharp details
• Unparalleled dimensional stability : zero shrinkage over time, crucial for professional series production
• Low viscosity : compatible with any DLP and LCD printer, even at low temperatures
• Optimized physical and mechanical properties : requires few printing supports
• Print profiles identical to V1 : backwards compatibility for those already using X-Filigree

Distinctive Features

Technical advantages :

• Zero bleeding : absolute precision even on LCD printers
• Zero shrinkage : dimensional stability over time for all thicknesses
• Low viscosity : facilitates cleaning and recovery from patterns, even at low temperatures
• Strong adhesion to the platform : no primer required
• Universal Compatibility : Works perfectly with any type of coating and burnout cycle
• Rigid Patterns : Printed patterns are harder and stiffer than other BlueCast resins

Fusion Flexibility :

• Standard Burnout (12 hours): compatible with traditional cycles
• Quick burnout (6 hours): Rapid fusion
• Ultra-fast burnout (2 hours at 700°C): specifically validated for X-One and X-Filigree V2

Ideal Applications

X-Filigree V2 is perfect for:

• Extreme watermarks and ultra-thin designs typical of the Middle Eastern and Asian market
• Lightweight jewelry with thin walls and micro-pavé
• Highly detailed models with microscopic engravings
• Mass production where dimensional stability is critical
• Designs that require little print media

Not recommended for : solid parts and heavy models (X-One is recommended for these)

Technical Specifications

Certifications and Safety

The resin complies with the Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 (REACH) and to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) . The complete safety data sheet (revision 07/02/2022) highlights:

• Classification : Repr. 2 H361f (suspected of damaging fertility), Aquatic Chronic 3 H412 (harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects)
• Precautions : P281 (Use personal protective equipment), P273 (Avoid release to the environment), P405 (Store locked up)
• Disposal : European waste code 08 01 99
• Components : Oligomers (10-70%), Additives (10-70%), Photoinitiators (0.1-5%, CAS 75980-60-8)

How to Use

Before printing :

• For maximum detail, use FEP HD or No-FEP (PFA); low-quality FEP may compromise printability
• Perform Z-axis calibration following the manufacturer's instructions
• Warm the resin before use using: microwave (max 30 seconds), ultrasonic cleaners, hot air, bottle warmers, etc.
• Shake the bottle for 1 minute before pouring it into the vat
• Let the resin rest in the vat for 5 minutes to eliminate bubbles (or filter/vacuum)
• Do not store resin in vat: remove, filter and return to the original bottle after each print.

Post-press and cleaning :

• Patterns printed with this resin are harder and stiffer than other BlueCast resins
• Clean with 91-99% ethyl alcohol or IPA
• Ultrasound : 2 minutes (recommended procedure)
• Machine wash : about 3 minutes
• Simple immersion : about 5 minutes
• Dry with compressed air (or hair dryer if not available)
• Mandatory UV post-curing : minimum 10 minutes
• After UV post-curing, a quick wash with fresh alcohol ensures excellent casting results (dry again)

Microfusion :

• Standard Burnout : 12 hours with traditional cycles
• Fast burnout : 6 hours
• Ultra-fast burnout (validated only for X-One and X-Filigree V2): rest for 3 hours, then 700°C for 60-90 minutes, cooling to casting temperature and holding for 60 minutes

Comparison with Other BlueCast Resins

X-Filigree V2 vs X-One :

• X-One: superior castability, ideal for heavy and solid models
• X-Filigree V2: Extreme printability, zero shrinkage, ideal for watermarks and thin patterns
• Both: Excellent performance, almost on par according to independent tests

X-Filigree V2 vs X-Wax Filigree :

• X-Wax Filigree: wax base, more flexible, ideal for Arabic motifs and expeditions
• X-Filigree V2: waxy polymer, more rigid after UV, absolute dimensional stability, ideal for series production

Why Choose X-Filigree V2?

X-Filigree V2 is the castable resin of absolute precision for those who work with extreme filigrees, Middle Eastern designs and ultra-thin jewelry . Unlike X-One (unbeatable for heavy models), X-Filigree V2 excels in extreme printability , zero dimensional shrinkage And compatibility with very light models .

It is the ideal choice for Middle Eastern designers , professional goldsmith workshops And casting service which require absolute dimensional stability in series production , few print media And perfect casting results with ultra-fast burnout .
