OEM Investment casting Services , also known as lost wax casting, is a casting method in which a pattern is made of a melt-able material, then coated with several layers of refractory material to form a shell, and the pattern is melted away after high-temperature firing, and then the molten metal is poured into the shell.
Investment casting have high precision and high surface quality, with small machining allowances, which can achieve less or no machining requires. Investment casting can cast complex thin-walled parts with complex shapes (the minimum wall thickness can reach 0.25-0.4mm), and the smallest hole diameter can reach 2.5mm.
The process normal as below:
Drawing Review ->Tooling Designing ->Tooling Manufacturing ->Wax Pattern Making ->Pattern Tree Assembly ->Dipping and Coating ->De-waxing and Firing- Pouring-Knockout ->Grinding ->Heat Treatment -> Machining(if requires) ->Inspection->Delivery
