Investment casting (lost-wax casting) is a precision manufacturing method used for producing components with fine detail, good surface finish, and tighter dimensional
control compared to conventional casting methods.
Investment Casting Process
Our investment casting process is designed for repeatability and precision within specified tolerances:
• Pattern Creation
Wax patterns are created to match the required component geometry.
• Ceramic Shell Formation
The wax pattern is coated with ceramic material to form a mould shell.
• Dewaxing
The wax is removed, leaving a hollow ceramic mould.
• Metal Pouring
Molten metal is poured into the ceramic mould under controlled conditions.
• Cooling & Shell Removal
After solidification, the ceramic shell is removed to retrieve the casting.
• Finishing & Inspection
Finishing and inspection processes are performed to meet required specifications.
Investment Cast Components
• Precision engineering parts
• Valve and pump components
• Marine and industrial fittings
• Automotive precision parts
• Complex custom-designed components
Investment Casting is a process for metal forming. It is also known as lost wax casting. The Castings allow the production of components with accuracy, reliability and integrity with wide range of metals and alloys. Casting manufacturing process consists of various important steps from injection to dewaxing and pouring to finishing…
Wax replicas of the desired castings are produced by injection moulding, in a continues production line these replicas will be assembled to gather on a runner riser to form a assembly tree.
Onec the assembly are ready, next process carried out by dipping assemblies into a ceramic slurry and on extremely fine sand to form a shell, this process is repeated for several times. Finally shells are dewaxed to form negative impression withing the shell.
The shells are filled with molten degased metal, as the metal cools, entire shell becomes a solid metal structure and with the help vibration ceramic shell is broken off.
With help of plasma cutting castings are extracted from the shell. There casting are identical to the wax patterns. Various machines and equipments are used to finish the surface and sent for further process of machining.
The entire production process is meticulously designed ensuring utmost consistency in quality and reduced lead time.
Meeting technical requirement of component is essential, customer demands and have come to expect a single source delivery of fully finished components with just in time delivery assemblies that are ready to use in final product.
We closely monitor each and every aspect of project from design though quotation, sampling, production and delivery.
