The business case

Why Porous Resin?

Porous resin moulds for High Pressure Casting provide a highly efficient solution for modern ceramic production. Compared to conventional slip casting, this technology enables significantly higher output, longer mould life and lower production costs.

10–20×

Higher output with fewer resources

Traditional casting allows 1–2 products per shift and mould. High-pressure casting with porous resin enables 20 or more with shorter cycle times, reduced labor and lower space requirements.

100k+

Long-lasting mould technology

Far longer service life than plaster moulds. With optimized coordination of mould design, machine parameters and slip formulation, over 100,000 casting cycles can be achieved.

The business case

Resin Systems: FINE PORE, MICRO & PRO

Castimo offers four- and five-component porous resin systems in MICRO and PRO versions. Each system is selected according to application, mould size and production requirements for optimal performance in high-pressure casting processes.

Defined pore structure with a mean pore radius of 12-15 (small pores) and a narrow arrangement of the pores (MICRO)

  • This pore structure is specifically designed for fine parts of slip and reduces clogging (contamination) of pores.
  • Minimal deformation in the pressure casting system due to its high resistance.
  • Products will be shipped with 4 component system.
  • Easy casting thanks to long processing time.
  • Ensures long mold life.
  • High pressure and abrasion resistance.
Working pressure
5-30 bar
Mean pore radius
12-15 micron
Porosity
25-30 %
Flexural strength
20-23 N /mm2
Compressive resistance
44-47 N /mm2
Flow rate
12-15 l/min
Shrinkage
approx. 0,2%

It has a medium/large pore structure along with a pore structure with a diameter of 16-19 microns

  • Thanks to its medium/large pore structure, it allows you to get products 25% faster in the pressure casting system compared to Castimo Resin Micro.
  • Minimal deformation in the pressure casting system due to its high resistance.
  • Products will be delivered with 4 component system.
  • Easy casting thanks to long processing time.
  • Ensures long mold life.
  • High pressure and abrasion resistance.

From components to production mould

Easy and Reliable Processing

The materials are easy to process and can be reliably cast into epoxy resin case moulds, such as Araldite, or other suitable epoxy-based mould frames. This ensures safe handling, uniform material distribution and consistent, reproducible mould quality.

Components

4- or 5-component resin system

Mixing

Controlled mixing, long processing time

Casting

Into Araldite / epoxy case moulds

Curing

Uniform distribution, approx. 0.2% shrinkage

Production Mould

Ready for high-pressure casting, 5–30 bar
