Nickel Based Alloys Investment Castings
Investment casting is being used on a large scale in many industries to manufacture near net shape products from difficult to machine and fabricate materials. The investment casting process can be carried out using a wide variety of alloys including “Nickel Based†materials. The material selection of a part is vital and depends on the design and application. Nickel based alloys are being used increasingly in a large number of applications which creates the necessity for a reliable supplier who is capable and has the specialized equipment necessary. Though few experienced suppliers exist, American Casting Company is one of the leading manufacturer of nickel-based investment castings.
