2025 Webinars: Upcoming Schedule

​
The limitations of traditional SLA patterns—high resin costs, extended production cycles, and material inefficiencies—have long hindered broader adoption in our industry. QuickCast Air™ represents a technical evolution aimed at addressing these challenges.  This member-exclusive webinar, led by Patrick Dunne, Vice President at 3D Systems, will provide an in-depth exploration of the QuickCast Air™ methodology.

Key topics include:

Economic Viability vs. Wax: Which scenarios are 3D printed patterns closer to wax cost levels, and which factors to evaluate. 
Material Efficiency: Learn how QuickCast Air reduces resin consumption by over 30% per pattern, directly impacting cost and sustainability metrics. Structural Optimization: Integration of advanced design strategies enables precise internal structure placement, minimizing material usage without compromising structural integrity.
Process Advantages: Understand how these optimizations streamline post-processing, reduce ash residue during burnout, and improve casting cleanliness.

This session is designed for foundry professionals seeking to deepen their technical understanding of emerging pattern-making technologies. Attendees will gain actionable insights into how QuickCast Air can enhance operational efficiency and support the economic adoption of 3D printed patterns.
