In investment casting, various steel types cater to diverse component needs. Choices, driven by specific product requirements, include:
Carbon Steel: General-purpose use. Offers cost-effective strength.
Alloy Steel: Enhanced properties with alloying elements. Improved strength, hardness, and corrosion resistance.
Stainless Steel: Known for corrosion resistance and high-temperature tolerance. Different grades (e.g., 304, 316) offer varying properties.
The steel selection hinges on the final product’s application, required mechanical features, and environmental conditions. Investment casting proves versatile, allowing tailored production for specific component performance.
