There are ten basic steps in the investment casting process. 1. A metal die is used to produce an expendable pattern, now almost universally a complex blend of resin, filler and wax. Precision ...

Nopatech from Saguenay Foundry is a revolutionary sand moulding technology. Nopatech™ gives you complete freedom in your casting purchases. Moulds without patterns make rapid prototyping a breeze, ...

Projects often require students to manage the casting process—requiring them to think about what features to machine versus cast, how to orient the mold, design the gating system, simulate the casting ...

3D printing master patterns can reduce the investment casting production time from weeks to days, potentially resulting in up to 75% time savings compared to traditional methods of manufacturing ...

Continuous casting remains the backbone of modern steel production, providing an efficient means to convert molten metal into semi‐finished forms such as slabs, blooms and billets. The process ...

The patterns are produced in VisiJet ® M2 ICast, 100% wax material which delivers the same melt and burn-out characteristics of standard casting waxes and fits seamlessly into existing foundry ...

“It’s called expendable pattern casting,” Brian Finder of UW-Stout told the students gathered around the setup. “It’s highly used in industry for all types of products.” ...

The process actually shrinks the casting, so we have to make it a little bit bigger to compensate for the increase in density. HIP’ing dramatically enhances the overall strength of the casting.

Manufacturers Can Now Quickly Produce High-Quality Master Patterns for Investment Casting Production with New 3D Printing Build Processor from Stratasys and Materialise ...
