What is Investment Casting?

Investment Casting Overview Investment casting is a lost wax precison casting technique with decades of history. It is mainly suitable for producing complex metal parts in various shapes with mass production. Investment casting begins by developing a wax model which accurately represents what will eventually become part of the final product. This wax model is then enclosed in a durable ceramic. After the outer shell is solidified, the inner wax layer is melted off and removed to create an empty ceramic mould. This cavity is then filled with molten steel, which assumes the exact shape and size of the
