Investment Casting

What is Investment Casting?

Investment Casting, also known as Lost Wax Casting, is a precision casting process that provides design flexibility and significant cost advantages.

The Investment Casting process involves pouring molten metal into a mold that has been created using a wax model. Once the mold is made, the wax model is melted and drained away.

Advantages of Investment Casting Process

One such advantage is the ability to make more intricate forms—even forms with undercuts. Also, the investment casting process leaves a very smooth surface, which is created without a parting line—something that would be unavoidable in other processes.

With new alloys developed that allow for more complex parts to be cast, the process of combining several parts together to get the intricate shape can be eliminated. This not only saves time and money, but it also diminishes the chances that an error could occur while combining the parts by welding or assembling.

Investment casting is very ideal to produce a wide range of products across different industries, various kinds of Steels and Alloys for your option, diminishing the need for designers to worry about the production of the casting they have visualized.
