Casting
Investment Casting (Lost Wax)
Source Investment Casting (Lost Wax) components through FERRASTACK's audited contract manufacturing network in India.
Investment casting creates detailed near-net-shape parts such as vanes, impellers, brackets, implants, and compact valve bodies.
- Typical materials
- It supports stainless and carbon steels, cobalt and nickel alloys, titanium, aluminium, and other castable engineering alloys.
- Scale & complexity
- The process handles fine detail, curved surfaces, thin sections, and shapes difficult to machine, subject to wax assembly and shell design.
- Tolerance & finishing
- Wax shrinkage, shell movement, gate removal, surface condition, straightening, heat treatment, and machining stock are application-dependent.
- Quality requirements
- Buyers can define chemistry, mechanical testing, dimensional inspection, surface criteria, and radiographic, penetrant, or other examination as needed.
- Why source with FERRASTACK
- FERRASTACK qualifies Indian investment-casting routes by alloy, part envelope, wax and shell control, testing, machining, and traceability needs.
