Investment castings technology – provides required dimensions products
Metal casting being a comprehensive field the companies have given undocked support in several ways to ensure best possible outcome. It is essentially an industrial unit that manufactures metal castings on a large scale wherein the metals are cast into various assorted shapes.
The metal is periodically melted into the liquid form and then poured into the desired cast. Later solidification of the metal occurs, where the metal is cooled and solidified and then it is removed from the cast. Aluminum and cast iron are the most common types of metals utilized for the casting purpose. Magnesium, tin, steel, zinc, copper, and bronze are the other metals which are used for the casting process.

The products manufactured by the non ferrous companies are DE-oxidizers for steel, modifiers with aluminum strontium alloys, Aluminum master alloys, Hardeners, grain refiners etc. While the products manufactured by the ferrous companies are Nodumag consisting of pure magnesium, Sorel metal made of high purity pig iron, Melt Pre Conditioners, Carbonizers with low sulfur content, Inok cast inoculations-consist of zirconium, strontium barium and several other elements
Various processes are involved in the Investment castings where metals are forged, melted and shaped to produce castings of the required dimensions. The prudent importance is been given to the precise engineering practice in the companies which resulted in the manufacturing of the superior quality products. The advanced technologies and automations and distinct developments have also helped in the inclination of the casting business. This has led to the flexibility of the manufacturing process of investment castings in India which in turn proved to be profitable.
