USG'S RAYITE 200 Sprayable Machinable Media Offers Ideal Solution for Large-Scale Prototyping, Molding and Model Making Applications

RAYITE™ 200 Sprayable Machinable Media from USG Corporation is a water-based, super-tough molding material ideal for use on a wide range of prototyping, mold, pattern and model-making operations.

The spray-applied, gypsum-based product can be used for applications of any size or shape, but is especially practical for large patterns and molds. It is easily applied in thin cross-sections to virtually any structurally supported armature, such as expanded polystyrene or low-density polyurethane foam.

RAYITE 200 Sprayable Machinable Media can be used with all machining processes and is ideally suited for CNC routers and gantry-type mills. It delivers excellent edge definition and produces sharp, precise cuts with minimal loading on milling machines and cutting tools. Its low friction results in reduced tool wear.

The product's unique formulation provides a number of additional application and performance benefits. The setting time can be adjusted from several minutes to several hours, providing the versatility needed to accommodate a wide range of pattern sizes. It also is non-combustible and non-toxic, ensuring a safe mixing and spraying environment. In addition, it delivers a high dimensional stability during and after machining. And its high-quality surface reduces preparation and finishing time and enables high-gloss finishes.

RAYITE 200 Sprayable Machinable Media applies easily. It is simply mixed with water and spray-applied using a RimCraft Technologies R-200 Spray Machine.
