Selecting the correct ceramic core in investment casting applications

摘要

The investment casting industry uses ceramic cores in various applications, due to their properties such as strength, refractory qualities and stability in extreme conditions. Cores allow the creation of internal cavities that are too small or complex to be shelled during the investment casting process. However, to achieve the best possible outcome, the ceramic core used must be fashioned from the most appropriate materials - for each application, a particular type of ceramic will offer the best solution.
