Investment casting VS Other Metal Casting Methods
Investment casting distinguishes itself from sand casting and die casting by excelling in precision, offering superior surface finishes, and providing material flexibility with a broader range of alloys. While die casting is advantageous for high-volume production, investment casting remains cost-effective for both small and large runs. With lower tooling costs and minimized material waste, investment casting proves […]
How Sand Casting Works
Sand casting works by generating a mold by forming a packed sand body around a wooden or rapid prototype master/pattern (or a part to be copied/reproduced). This mold requires features related to gas venting, fill and thermal compensation volumes, and core support, and it can then be filled with molten metal, which cools in place […]
