Dongkun specializes in lost wax investment casting of heat-resistant, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant alloys. We have a unique ability to manufacture very large net weight parts. Value engineering helps manage procedures to deliver the correct parts on time.

What is the precision lost wax casting process？

The lost wax casting process refers to making a model with wax, wrapping multiple layers of refractory materials such as clay and binder on its surface, heating the wax to melt and flow out, so as to obtain an empty shell formed by the refractory material, and then pour the metal after melting. Enter the hollow shell, and after the metal is cooled, the refractory material is crushed to obtain metal parts. This process of processing metal is called lost wax casting, also known as lost wax casting or investment casting.

The advantages of the lost wax process.

1. Excellent surface finish: The ceramic shell is made according to the wax pattern of the smooth surface. Applying ceramic to the wax mold and when you remove the wax you get a premium finish.

2. Complex near-net geometry: The wax pattern inside the ceramic is almost the final shape, and the properties of liquid ceramics can round out the wax pattern and any details thereof. When the wax is removed, the shape remains. So pour the molten metal into the casing and wait for it to cool. You will get the final geometry.

3. Wide range of alloys: The ceramic shell is very hard and can withstand the extreme heat of molten metal. The melting point of most metals is lower than the tolerance point of the enclosure. Therefore lost wax casting can be used for a variety of alloys.

4. Fine details: The liquid ceramic shell will distort all the details the wax model has, so the final product will have fine details.

Application of precision investment casting process.

1. Lost wax casting molds are used in nearly all manufacturing sectors, such as power generation, firearms, automotive, aerospace, military, oil and gas, food service, and energy industries.

2. Metal lost wax casting can produce almost all types of metal parts in the firearms industry, such as triggers, and hammer firearms. Every industry that uses metal parts can produce its parts using the investment casting process.

3. Lost wax casting process can also be divided into a water glass and aluminum investment casting processes.

Packing and Shipping.

1. Each product is carefully packed with bubble bags and packed in cartons. In order to cause scratches due to knocks, which will affect the quality and use of the product, we will use wooden boxes specially designed for export for packaging and transportation.

2. All products will be transported according to customer needs, such as express, air shipping, sea shipping, and railway shipping.
