Cobalt-based alloy castings with high-temperature resistance and wear resistance are widely used in the fields of Oil&Gas
Cobalt-based Lost Wax Casting Parts
Lost-wax casting is a process for creating objects, from simple to complex, in a variety of metals (such as gold, silver, brass, or bronze) by casting an original model or pattern. Cobalt-based alloy castings with high-temperature resistance and wear resistance are widely used in the fields of Oil&Gas, Chemicals, Nuclear power, and Medical new materials.
Lost-wax Casting: Max weight of single investment casting part is 500KG;
Lost Wax Casting With Cobalt Based Material
Lost wax casting precess
Matson Lost wax casting has sophisticated production technology of investment casting,
The lost-wax casting process can differ depending on the industry and application, but it generally consists of the following steps. Cast parts can be made from a wax model itself, called the direct method, or from replicas of the original wax model, called the indirect method.
