Precision Investment Casting Services
Investment casting (lost-wax) is a precision process that forms complex shapes in a single step while delivering high accuracy and excellent surface finish. It suits high-mix/low-volume and mid-volume production, shortens downstream machining, and reduces total manufacturing cost.
Multiple materials are available—stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, etc.—to meet demanding applications from automotive components and pump/valve parts to medical and aerospace. This method is especially strong for thin walls, intricate details, and geometries that are difficult to achieve with conventional machining.
Investment Casting Process Flow
Wax pattern making → tree assembly → repeated ceramic-shell coating → dewaxing → high-temperature pouring → shell removal → cutoff & finishing → heat treatment / machining (as required).
We provide a range of metal forming processes, including Investment Casting, Metal Injection Molding (MIM), and Powder Metallurgy (PM), helping global engineering and procurement teams select the most suitable manufacturing solution based on part size, geometric complexity, material performance, tolerances, surface requirements, and annual production volume.
Investment Casting is well suited for complex three-dimensional geometries and a wide range of alloy materials. Metal Injection Molding is ideal for small, precision, highly complex parts produced in medium to high volumes, while Powder Metallurgy is better suited for relatively simple geometries, high-volume production, and cost-sensitive applications. Through early-stage DFM evaluation, we can also integrate CNC machining, heat treatment, and surface finishing to reduce secondary operations, minimize dimensional risks and total manufacturing costs, and improve production consistency.
