When it comes to investment casting of metal parts, factors such as design requirements, cost and manufacturing feasibility determine which casting process is best for manufacturing the product. This article on investment casting is designed to help you make an informed casting decision.

Investment casting produces precision components while minimizing material waste, energy and subsequent… Continue

Gray iron castings, also known as gray iron castings, are iron-carbon alloy parts produced by foundries, not to be confused with forging. Inside the foundry, the gray cast iron material is cast into shape in a closed mold operation and is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.



Industries that use gray iron castings include: agriculture, construction, automotive, construction,… Continue

Water glass casting is one of the most common investment casting processes in China, but it is rare in other countries. Among the investment foundries in China, about 80% of the foundries are based on water glass casting, and the rest are silica sol foundries. So what is water glass casting?

Water glass casting, a lost wax investment casting process, uses water glass as a binder for the shell. The… Continue

Compared with traditional casting techniques, investment casting is a modern precision casting method. Through investment casting, we can obtain relatively complex shapes with higher precision, so most stainless steel parts are made by investment casting.

Stainless steel investment casting process: use wax to make patterns or models, coat a layer of clay and other refractory materials, heat to melt the wax and flow out, so as to obtain an empty shell formed by refractory materials, and… Continue
