WHEN COMPARED TO...

INVESTMENT CASTING YIELDS...

DIE CASTINGS

  • A broader selection of available alloys
  • Superior part strength
  • Less costly tooling
  • The ability to produce more complex designs

MACHINED FORGINGS

  • No draft requirements
  • Elimination of virtually all machining
  • The ability to use stronger materials

MACHINED COMPONENTS

  • Improved strength-to-part weight
  • The ability to produce complex shapes that are virtually impossible to machine
  • Shorter lead times on complicated high volume runs
  • Reduced labor and less material waste

MULTI-PIECE BRAZED OR WELDED ASSEMBLIES

  • Single piece part production
  • No need for machining, welding, brazing or polishing
  • Reduced time and material requirements
  • Better final part quality and appearance

SAND CASTINGS

  • Improved surface finishes
  • Utilization of a wider range of alloys
  • Reduced need for secondary operations
  • More precise part tolerances
  • The ability to produce smaller and more complex parts

POWERED METAL COMPONENTS

  • Lower tooling costs and reduced tool wear
  • Shorter lead times and greater design freedom
  • Improved part strength and ductility
  • Utilization of a broader selection of alloys
