Degassers
A degasser is a device used to remove trapped air, gas bubbles, or volatile substances from a material—typically liquids before processing.
In the context of casting, 3D printing, or resin work, a degasser (often a vacuum chamber or centrifugal degasser) helps eliminate air pockets that could cause defects, weak spots, or surface imperfections in the final product.
Common Applications:
Resin casting: Removes bubbles from silicone or epoxy before pouring into a mould.
