Applications of investment casting

Although investment casting is a well-established industrial technology, its potential continues to expand, particularly in producing larger, more complex, and high-performance metal components. In recent years, the process has evolved considerably thanks to advances in materials, simulation tools, and manufacturing equipment. Balancing volume, quality, and complexity Today’s market reflects a dual trend in investment casting.

Conversion to MIM of die-cast door hinge manufacturing

The last December number of PIM International magazine, includes a Case Study prepared by our technical director, Manuel Caballero. In the article, Manuel Caballero reviews a conversion process in which a die-cast zinc hinge set is redesigned for production with MIM in 316L stainless steel, improving significantly mechanical properties.  Die casting is a widely used
