Benefíts - Why is it Advantageous?
• Possibility of producing complex parts in large quantities
• Greater freedom for the design of parts
• Feasibility of replacing two or more fabricated sub-assembling by a single piece casting
• Lighter (reduced weight), stronger components may be designed, without a mismatch, giving an improved aesthetic appearance
• The process permits a high level of consistency, batch to batch
• Compared to other conventional way of manufacturing castings, with lost wax process close dimensional tolerance and a fine smooth grain finished are normally achieved
• The light stressed wax impression dies have a very long life and are not costly considering design complexity
• If required, minor design modification may be made economically without going for few tooling
• Increased productivity can result from reduction or elimination of machining and the consequent deployment of shop floor
• Comparatively small orders can be produced at economical prices
• A high level of metallurgical integrity and strength can be achieved in the lost wax process
