Defect analysis on investment casting: a case study

Investment casting process is a manufacturing method for many critical and value added components in many industrial and commercial applications. The principal advantage over other processes such as fabrication, forging and extrusion is the production of a single and complex casting. the proce...

description Investment casting process is a manufacturing method for many critical and value added components in many industrial and commercial applications. The principal advantage over other processes such as fabrication, forging and extrusion is the production of a single and complex casting. the process is more prone to defects due to its complexity of part design and process. Therefore, this research has been conducted to identity defect that occurred in a part, which cast by investment casting process. Body Valve 1 is a product ofMMI Precision Sdn.
