Precimetal has established various technologies to manufacture investment casting parts in lost-wax process. They are :
Manufacturing capabilities-
The company manufactures all types of ferrous based castings conforming to various Indian as well as international standards. The most common are:
Stainless Steel casting confirming to various standards like ASTM, IS, DIN, JIS e.g. CF8, CF3, CF8M, CF3M, CD4MCU, 17.4PH, CA6NM, CA 15, CA 40 etc.
Heat Resistance Steel casting confirming to various standards like ASTM, IS, DIN, JIS e.g. grades HA, HH, HK, HT, etc.
Special Alloy casting confirming to various standards like ASTM, IS, DIN, JIS e.g. Alloy-20, Haste Alloy - A, Haste Alloy-B, Haste Alloy-C etc.
Plain & Low Alloy Steel casting confirming to various standards like ASTM, IS, DIN, JIS e.g. WCB, WCA, WCC, EN-8, EN-9, EN-19, EN-24, EN-55, etc.
Alloy Steel casting confirming to various standards like ASTM, IS, DIN, JIS e.g. LCB, LCC, LC-6, CA 15, CA6NM, etc.
Investment castings can be produced with a very close control dimension eliminating machining in some of the products. It’s to the buyer’s interest to develop the product with minimum machining allowance to enable him to take advantage of the process. General tolerances which can be achieved by this process are mentioned below. However if required still further tight tolerance, the same can be discussed with the manufacturer and then design the product accordingly.
The dimensions tolerances mentioned are as per Indian Standards 11166 Class II. All tolerances are in +/- tolerances.

As-cast tolerances | 0.100 | 0.125 | 0.200 | 0.250 |
As a general rule, angular tolerances can be held to +/- ½ degree.
Material | Average R.M.S. value |
---|---|
Carbon and low alloy steels | 90-125 |
Stainless Steels | 90-125 |
Moreover, letters, symbols, numbers, holes etc. also can be cast in ‘As-Cast’ conditions by this process.
