Precision investment casting is regarded as the premier casting technique that can produce net or near net shape casting parts with close tolerance and excellent surface finish with any alloy. Precision investment casting has a wide range of applications that require thin wall capabilities and smooth surface finish. In the past, precision investment casting was regarded as the tool for sculpture and artwork. Today, precision investment casting serves in the fields of electronics, communication, automotive market, airframe components, medical equipments, implants, pumps, valves, petrochemical industry, and nuclear reactors, as well as for aerospace, military, defence, and commercial applications. | |||||||||

Preferred Choice Over Welding The latest demand from various industries is to produce components of complex structure and thin wall capabilities, with high levels of stability. Precision investment casting is the preferred choice over welding and joining parts together. A single continuous structure saves on welding and provides a more stable structure Designers see precision investment casting technology as superior to many other casting techniques as it gives more flexibility to produce parts of any complex shapes. It also reduces or eliminates the machining needs. Precision investment casting not only solves initial production problems, it also is more economical in the long run as the casting products have longer life spans and fewer worn-outs. It supports both large scale and small scale production of light weight parts.

Engineers use advanced techniques to achieve maximum tolerance levels and to avoid the ill effects of wax, metal or shell shrinkages. Precision investment casting can produce parts that weigh up to 20 kg or more. Precision investment casting is able to provide parts with thin wall capabilities of less than a millimetre up to 1000 mm or more. Verify Critical Accuracy Before Melting It is always a good idea to verify the critical dimensional accuracy before melting the alloy. The CAD software and prototype casting will give provide an idea about the possible outcome of the precision investment casting, even before going into the full- scale production. |
