Custom Investment Cast Parts
Material: Cast Steel Process: Lost Wax Casting + Machining Weight: 1.80 kg Application: Pump Housing
Custom investment casting parts of cast steel with CNC machining, solid solution heat treatment and surface treatments.
OEM Custom Investment Castings of Stainless Steel, Alloy Steel and Carbon Steel
The investment casting gets its name because the patterns (wax replicas) is invested with the surrounded refractory materials during casting process. The "invested" here means being surrounded. The wax replicas should be invested (surrounded) by the refractory mateials to withstand the high temperature of the flowing molten metals during casting. During the investment casting process, a wax pattern is coated with a ceramic material, which, when hardened, adopts the internal geometry of the desired casting. In most cases, multiple parts are cast together for high efficiency by attaching individual wax patterns to a central wax stick called a sprue. The wax is melted out of the pattern – which is why it is also known as the lost wax process – and molten metal is poured into the cavity. When the metal solidifies, the ceramic mold is shaken off, leaving the near net shape of the desired casting, followed by finishing, testing and packaging.
