Precision investment casting

Precision investment casting is a technique that manufactures most detailed and complex metal forms by using molds. This laser cutting method is ideal for creating parts which require high strength and can withstand harsh environments. Thus, in this text we will delve deeper into the question to understand how does precision investment casting work, where it is used and why is considered an essential process for a wide range of industries. Precision investment casting produces castings with much more complex shapes. It starts with creating an example of a part that we are interested in. This Zhongsheng mould can be in the form of wax mold which has a low melting point. From their appropriate model, a mold is made in which the downscaled replica of this toy carrying case will be created. As it all starts with the wax model of a mold, typically this referred to as the wax pattern.


The Benefits of Precision Investment Casting in High-Performance Applications

Once the mould is made, then you have to burn of wax pattern. This creates a void in the mold which is exactly shaped by original model. At this point you pour hot die casting molten metal to the mold. The area that is now empty becomes filled with hot metal, conforming to the shape of what was once a wax pattern. The mold is broken apart after the metal has cooled and hardened, revealing our finished part. But precision investment casting remains a popular choice because the parts it produces are incredibly durable and don't wear down easily. Parts are designed to be able to withstand high temperatures and pressure, while still maintaining performance in suboptimal conditions. In addition, parts manufactured by this technique enjoy a high surface finish. This smoothness is critical for many parts in jet engines, medical devices and other machines that rely on precision performance.
