1. Design flexibility: Investment casting produces near-net-shape configurations, offering designers and engineers freedom of design in a wide range of alloys. The process is capable of producing precise detail dimensional accuracy, and parts may weigh just a few ounces to many pounds.
2. Wide choice of alloys: Available for most metals, please check our material reference page.
3. Eliminate tooling set-up: By offering near-net-shape configuration, fixture costs are substantially reduced or eliminated.
4. Reduce production costs: Costly machining operations are reduced and often eliminated.
5. Cut assembly operations: Several parts can be made as one casting, reducing handling, assembly and inspection costs.
6. Reproduce fine details: Splines, holes, bosses, lettering, serrations and even some threads can be cast.
