What is Investment Casting?
An outgrowth of one of the oldest known metal forming techniques, investment casting has been used in some form for roughly 5,000 years and is a proven solution for manufacturers needing a part with complex internal geometries. Wax patterns from injection dies are repeatedly immersed, or “invested,” in a ceramic slurry that hardens around the wax. Once the ceramic is hardened, the coated wax melted away in a furnace, leaving the ceramic shell intact. Molten steel is then poured into the ceramic, and the ceramic shell is removed to reveal the final part.
Additional Characteristics of 17-4 ss casting:
17-4 PH stainless steel casting is known for exceptional hardness, durability, and corrosion resistance under extreme temperatures. Because of this, it’s frequently used in the oil & gas, defense, and automotive industries. Common applications for 17-4 investment casting include:
