Potion Cauldron Injection Molding Instructions

FDM Slicing Settings

• Material: PETG/PC
• Nozzle Diameter: 0.4 mm
• Wall Thickness: 8 layers (≈3.2 mm, high compressive strength, resistant to multiple injections)
• Top Layer Thickness: 3 mm
• Bottom Layer Thickness: 2 mm
• Infill Density: 25% (balance between strength and material saving)
• Infill Pattern: Recommended Grid
• Layer Height: 0.2 mm

Preparation Materials

1. PVC stock solution
2. PVC special color paste (green)
3. Release agent (recommended: PTFE-based release agent; edible oil can also be used, but the release effect is not as good)
4. 3D printed mold
5. SALTGATOR injection molding machine

Injection Molding Steps

1. Add an appropriate amount of PVC stock solution and PVC special color paste into the injection machine, and start heating.
2. After heating is completed, use the injection molding machine to inject into the mold
3. After injection, wait 6–8 minutes to allow the PVC soft gel to cool.
