Precision Lost Wax Casting
Lost-wax casting is a precise metal forming process, and its core advantage lies in accurately replicating complex shapes. Craftsmen make wax molds according to the design, coat them layer by layer with ceramic-based refractory materials to form a composite shell. After melting the wax at high temperature, a precise cavity is obtained. After injecting the metal solution and cooling, a casting with a surface finish of Ra3.2 and a tolerance of ±0.1mm is obtained.
This process is particularly adept at manufacturing parts with complex inner cavities, such as aviation turbine blades, artificial joints and watch movements, and can perfectly present fine patterns at the 0.5mm level. Compared with sand casting, its finished products can directly achieve a mirror-like effect. The dimensional error of repeated casting is less than 0.3%, and no secondary processing is required. These technological advantages make it an irreplaceable core technology in the field of precision manufacturing and play a key role in the production of high-end industries and medical devices.

Custom Surface Treatment
AFI Industrial Co., Ltd offers customers a wide range of lost-wax cast metal materials, including stainless steel, copper, aluminum, carbon steel, alloy steel, iron, magnesium, and precious metals. Meet your diverse needs.
Anodizing: Our technicians immerse metal products in electrolytes such as sulfuric acid, chromic acid or oxalic acid. The surface of the products undergoes an oxidation reaction, forming an oxide film, thereby completing the anodic oxidation reaction of the products. This surface treatment is mainly used for aluminium and its alloys, and can also be applied to metals such as titanium and magnesium. It can enhance the corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the product. We offer customers a variety of color options to meet the diverse appearance requirements of the product. Anodizing processes are widely applied in fields such as aerospace, automotive industry, architectural decoration, consumer electronics casings, and medical devices.
Electroplating is the process of reducing metal ions in the electroplating solution and uniformly depositing them on the surface of the product to form a dense and strong metal coating. Electroplating can significantly enhance the corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, and aesthetic appeal of metal products, and thus is often used in fields such as automobiles, electronics, and home appliances.
Spraying is a commonly used surface treatment technology, there are various spraying methods, air spraying with its flexible operation, high coating quality and low cost advantages, widely used in automobiles, air tools, electrical equipment and other areas of hardware parts.
Brushed is a surface treatment method that forms lines on the surface of the workpiece by grinding the product to play a decorative effect. Because the surface drawing treatment can reflect the texture of metal materials, it has been loved by more and more users and is more and more widely used.
Sandblasting is a process for surface treatment of workpieces. The compressed air is used as the power to form a high-speed jet beam to spray the spray material (copper ore, quartz sand, emery, iron sand, sea sand) to the surface of the workpiece to be treated at high speed so that the appearance or shape of the workpiece surface is changed.
Polishing is a process that removes microscopic protrusions on the surface of materials through physical, chemical or electrochemical methods, making them smooth, flat or even achieving a mirror-like effect. It is widely used in fields such as precision parts processing, automobiles, and medical equipment.

Frequent Asked Questions
The main difference between direct lost wax casting and indirect lost wax casting is the way the wax model is made. Direct lost wax casting is to use wax to make a mold directly, and then cast the product; indirect lost wax casting is to first make a metal original mold, use the metal original mold to make a silicone mold, and then use the silicone mold to inject wax to get a wax film.
Wax molds need to have a low shrinkage rate, high strength and easy removal. We often use a mixture of paraffin, beeswax and synthetic wax to ensure the forming accuracy and demolding integrity.
Post-treatment of lost-wax casting includes cutting gates and risers, sandblasting cleaning, heat treatment (such as annealing and strengthening), machining correction and surface treatment (such as electroplating and polishing) to enhance the performance and appearance of the finished product.
Carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, copper alloy, etc., they are especially suitable for high-temperature alloys (such as aviation blades).
We need to improve the air permeability of the gating system and the shell to prevent air holes, regulate the cooling rate and the support structure to prevent deformation, strictly inspect the shell and the dewaxing process to enhance its surface quality, and precisely control the wax mold shrinkage rate and mold size to ensure accuracy.
