Injection wax: Jewellery casters use specially formulated injection waxes to produce high quality wax patterns. To make the most of the inherent features and benefits in your jewelry injection wax, we recommend incorporating three important routines into your nightly shutdown procedures:
• Always release the air pressure
• Fill your pot with fresh wax
• Check to be sure your wax pot is left on Some injector operators turn the wax pot thermostat off at shutdown, then turn it on high each morning to quickly melt the wax. This practice is not recommended for the following reasons:
• It poses a serious risk of accidental burns to the operator
• It consumes/dissipates wax ingredients which are critical to maintaining the original properties of the wax
• Wax injected at higher than recommended temperatures can cause excessive pattern shrinkage
• It diminishes or eliminates the glossy surface finish on patterns, resulting in rougher castings and increased finish work.
Just Unpacked!
