Overview

• Stainless steel casting, also known as stainless steel investment casting, refers to the formation of ceramics around a wax pattern to form a shell for casting stainless steel. Once the wax patterns are created, they are melted into a gating system, dipped in mud and sand to form a layered shell, and then replaced with molten stainless steel.
  
  How are stainless steel castings made?
  Stainless steel casting involves creating an original wax model, building the image with plaster and successive layers until there is a solid shell around the model. After the wax has melted, the molten stainless steel is poured into the mold, creating a perfect replica of the original wax pattern. Stainless steel castings provide economical undercuts, high resolution, fine detail, and a smooth surface finish compared to machined separations.
  
  In most cases, stainless steel castings are the only way to manufacture parts economically.
