Product Description

The Introduction and Development of Investment Casting

Investment casting is an industrial manufacturing process based on lost-wax casting, one of the oldest known metal-forming techniques. The term "lost-wax casting" can also refer to modern investment casting processes. At first, it has been used in jewelry making for centuries but are now finding many more uses including precision instruments, engine parts, and medical equipment. Because of the wide application of manufactured metal parts, aluminum alloy investment castings are found in the automotive, dental, mining, medical, food machinery, sports, and telecommunication industries.
Investment casting is generally used for small precision parts that would be very difficult to produce through any other method. Aluminum alloy investment castings can have walls as thin as half a millimeter. They range from a fraction of an ounce to over 1,000 pounds though most castings are 15 pounds or less.

Aluminum alloy contains a high percentage of aluminum alloyed with copper, magnesium, silicon, tin, manganese or zinc. They are lightweight and corrosion resistant and are the alloy of choice for many aerospace applications due to these properties. Aluminum alloys can be strengthened through either heat treatment or cold-working processes, depending on the alloys.
