Investment casting
Investment casting is a manufacturing process used to create complex metal parts with high precision. It begins by making a wax pattern of the desired shape, which is then coated with a ceramic material to form a shell. After the shell hardens, the wax is melted away, leaving a cavity in the shape of the part. Molten metal is then poured into this cavity to create the final component. This technique is valued for its ability to produce intricate designs and smooth finishes, making it widely used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and jewelry.
