Investment Casting Questions
How does the investment casting process work?
A sacrificial pattern and a refractory shell define the mold, followed by casting, separation and finishing. See the ten-stage guide.
What tolerances can you achieve?
Requirements are reviewed by feature, material and manufacturing condition. Separate as-cast and machined tolerances.
Which materials can be specified?
Stainless steel, carbon steel, superalloy and aluminum enquiry scope was confirmed by the company. Specific grades need review; titanium is a proposed topic pending capability confirmation.
What is the minimum order quantity?
MOQ depends on the component, tooling, material and production scope. Request a project-specific quotation.
What lead time should I plan for?
Tooling and sample timing differ from repeat production. Agree the delivery schedule in the quotation.
Can you provide in-house CNC machining?
CNC finishing can be included for drawing-defined bores, threads, faces and other interfaces. Explore CNC machining.
Are heat treatment and surface processing in-house?
Yes, these broad process categories were confirmed. The exact treatment and finish still need to be specified and agreed.
Which certifications apply?
Request current certification documents and confirm their scope and validity for your project. Do not assume application-specific approval from a general capability statement.
