Lost Wax Investment Casting Technical Parameters at RMC


Investment (lost wax) casting is a method of precision casting complex near-net-shape details using replication of wax patterns. Investment casting or lost wax is a metal forming process that typically uses a wax pattern surrounded by a ceramic shell to make a ceramic mold. When the shell dries, the wax is melted away, leaving only the mold. Then the casting component is formed by pouring molten metal into the ceramic mold.

Here in the following table you will find some brief information about our investment casting technology. Hope they can help you to know more about what we can offer you in the field of lost wax casting process.
