Proposals for cost reduction from current machined products and cost reduction through integration from the assembly structure of multiple parts.
This is an introduction to lost-wax precision casting. It is a method suitable for reducing costs of complex machined parts with high repeatability, as well as parts assembled from multiple components using screws or welding. Additionally, the ability to cast various materials is one of its attractions. Please feel free to consult us. 【Cost Reduction Examples】 ■ Cost reduction by switching from machining ■ Cost reduction by integrating a three-point structure with screws (eliminating the assembly process) ■ Cost reduction by integrating a five-point structure with welding 【Features of Lost-Wax】 ■ Capable of manufacturing complex shapes, including undercuts. ■ Mass production of three-dimensional curved shapes that are difficult to machine is possible. ■ Handles a wide range of materials including carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, aluminum alloy, and copper alloy. 【What is Lost-Wax Casting?】 Unlike methods such as die casting or sand casting, a wax model is first formed using an aluminum mold. This is then coated with a refractory material, and after curing, it is heated and the wax is removed (lost-wax), creating a cavity in the mold that matches the shape of the wax model, into which metal is poured. Although it is a molded product, it can accommodate both small production runs (from 5 pieces) and larger quantities.
