3Diligent Adds Wax-to-Metal and Plating Options

3Diligent, San Diego, CA, has expanded its resume of metal rapid-manufacturing technologies to allow it to offer metal plating of resin and plastic parts, in addition to metal casting of wax-printed parts. These offerings complement the company’s existing metal-printing and machining capabilities.

Metal plating of 3D-printed parts allows designers to achieve many of the benefits of metal printing, without the pricetag. Through metal plating, parts are given a metallic appearance and additional durability. And, wax print to cast-metal technology provides customers a means to access materials that aren’t readily printed any other way. The process can be used for casting precious metals or industrial alloys that aren’t readily offered in powder form.
