Flashforge WJ51C — Desktop Wax 3D Printer
The world's first desktop industrial wax 3D printer: industrial-grade MultiJet (MJP) precision and 100% castable wax, in a footprint that fits on a workbench.
The Flashforge WJ51C brings true industrial wax printing into the studio. Where castable-resin printers approximate jewellery casting, the WJ51C jets 100% real casting wax — the same material used in traditional lost-wax workflows — so printed patterns flow straight into investment casting with clean, ash-free burnout. At 2900 × 2900 × 1700 DPI and a 15 µm layer thickness, it captures micro-pavé settings, filigree and fine engraving that define high-end gold, K-gold, silver and copper pieces — all from a machine that sits on a bench rather than filling a room.
Why Wax, Not Resin, for Casting
Castable resins made desktop jewellery printing accessible — but they remain an approximation of casting wax. They can leave ash on burnout, demand carefully tuned burnout cycles, and risk investment cracking from thermal expansion. The WJ51C removes that compromise entirely by printing in genuine casting wax:
| WJ51C — MJP Wax | Castable Resin (LCD/DLP) | |
|---|---|---|
| Pattern material | 100% real casting wax | Photopolymer resin (wax-loaded) |
| Burnout | Clean, ash-free (<0.01% ash) | Can leave residue / ash |
| Casting workflow | Drops into standard lost-wax | Often needs adjusted burnout |
| Support removal | Dissolvable wax support — hands-free | Manual support clipping |
| Surface finish | Ultra-smooth, minimal polishing | Layer lines may need work |
| Best for | Production-grade casting | Prototyping & low-cost entry |
Already run an MSLA resin printer such as the Original Prusa SL1S SPEED? The two complement each other — resin for rapid prototyping and design iteration, the WJ51C for casting-grade production wax patterns.
Desktop Size, Industrial Output
Fits on a bench
865 × 510 × 654 mm and 115 kg — industrial wax printing without dedicating a room or floor-mounted plant.
Industry-leading detail
2900 × 2900 × 1700 DPI with 15 µm layers and ±0.04 mm/20 mm accuracy for micro-pavé and filigree.
Less wasted wax
Redesigned block-based supply delivers ≥57% part-wax utilisation and prevents thermal degradation of unused material.
Built-in HD camera
Monitor long jobs remotely; a 13-inch HD touchscreen keeps on-machine operation simple.
Hands-free supports
White FFMS3200 support wax dissolves away in a controlled solvent bath — no manual clipping of delicate parts.
One-click workflow
WaxJetPrint software handles slicing and support generation; minimal training to first casting-ready pattern.
The Wax: FFWJ1200 & FFMS3200
The WJ51C uses a dual-wax system. FFWJ1200 is the red model wax — a high-precision, tougher castable formulation with very low shrinkage (1.1% volumetric) and near-zero ash content for flawless burnout. FFMS3200 is the white support wax, formulated to dissolve cleanly so even fragile geometry survives de-supporting intact. Both are supplied in compact solid blocks for on-demand use, minimising the thermal degradation that affects bulk-melt systems.

Who It's For
- Gold, K-gold, silver and copper jewellery manufacturers producing casting patterns
- Jewellery design studios and small workshops moving from outsourced wax growing to in-house production
- Sample-wax developers and small-batch wax production providers
- Casting houses and integrated jewellery printing service bureaus
- Studios that already prototype in resin and need a casting-grade wax tier alongside it
