Near-Net-Shape Casting

Near-Net-Shape Casting is a manufacturing process that creates metal or alloy parts very close to their final size and shape directly from liquid metal. This reduces the need for additional machining or finishing, saving time and material. The process involves pouring molten metal into a mold designed to produce a near-final form, which cools and solidifies with minimal post-processing. It is commonly used for complex or large components, helping to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and produce high-precision parts suitable for industries like aerospace, automotive, and machinery.
