Abstract
The article presents analysis of possibility of application of casting waxes in process of rapid prototyping of casting models in silicone the matrices. The researches were made on casting waxes applied to the manufacturing of precise casting models and also the model system. Testing waxes are intended nominally to the processing in process of the injection. The determining of possibility processing of waxes in silicone forms was purpose of researches. Researches concerned of whole manufacturing process i.e. the preparation of the form and wax, the filling of form and also the deforming. As a result of made researches the temperature of filling of matrix was determined. The main part of research process concerned determining of temperature of deforming for every with kinds of waxes. This is especially important in case of manufacturing of casting models of precise elements, which can be destroyed easily. In this purpose researches of the bending of waxen forms were made in the range of temperature 20-37ÂșC. The processing parameters of casting waxes were determined as a result of made researches.
