1、 What is lost wax cast steel?

Lost wax casting is an advanced casting technology, also known as precision casting. Use refractory materials to make the required mold shell, then inject liquid metal into the model, wait for it to cool and solidify, and finally obtain the desired casting.

2、 What are the advantages of wax loss casting steel?

1. Improve product quality: The lost wax casting process can produce high-precision and high-quality steel castings, achieving precision and surface quality requirements that are difficult to achieve with other casting processes. At the same time, it has high dimensional accuracy and good surface smoothness, which does not require a lot of mechanical processing, saving costs and time.

2. Improve material performance: Due to the high requirements for sample batch size in wax loss casting, beneficial modifying elements can be evenly distributed to the upper, middle, and lower parts of larger, complex, or thin-walled castings under pressure, thereby improving material performance.

3. Achieving high-temperature casting: Due to the need for steel to be cast at high temperatures, ordinary casting methods cannot meet the requirements. The lost wax casting method can use special steel casting materials and processes to achieve high-temperature casting, thereby enabling the casting of more complex and high-precision steel castings.

3、 The application prospects of lost wax cast steel in the engineering field

The application of lost wax casting technology in industries such as aviation, aerospace, weapons, automobiles, textiles, electronics, etc. is becoming increasingly popular and has taken a dominant position in certain fields. For example, almost all turbine blades and guide vanes in aircraft engines are cast using the lost wax method. In the manufacturing of large forged parts, lost wax casting has begun to replace forging processes. In addition, its role in the chemical and petroleum industries is becoming increasingly significant.

【 Conclusion 】

In the casting industry, lost wax casting, as a new type of casting process with development potential, will bring enormous potential to our industrial and economic development. With the continuous advancement of technology and the expansion of application fields, lost wax casting technology will make greater contributions to the development of human society.
