Wax for Precision Casting

Wax is an essential component in the investment casting process, often referred to as the "lost wax" method. In this process, a model is created from a precise wax replica, which is then coated with a ceramic shell. Once the wax is melted away, molten metal is poured into the mold to create a detailed, high-precision cast part. OKAYAMA GIKEN's waxes are formulated to provide superior flow properties, easy removal from molds, and minimal shrinkage, all of which are crucial for producing high-quality metal parts.

Features

High Resolution and Detail: Our waxes are specifically developed to capture fine details and produce high-resolution castings. This is ideal for industries requiring intricate designs, such as aerospace, automotive, and medical device manufacturing.

Excellent Flowability: The wax products from OKAYAMA GIKEN are engineered to flow smoothly into mold cavities, ensuring that the mold is filled evenly and that all details are accurately reproduced. This minimizes defects like misruns or incomplete filling, which can compromise the quality of the final casting.

Thermal Stability: Our waxes are designed to withstand the rigors of the investment casting process, offering excellent thermal stability during both the shell building and the burnout stages. The wax maintains its structural integrity even at elevated temperatures.

Minimal Shrinkage: OKAYAMA GIKEN's precision casting waxes are formulated to have minimal shrinkage during cooling and hardening, which helps maintain the accuracy of the casting and ensures precise dimensional consistency.

Fast and Clean Removal: The wax can be removed quickly and efficiently from the mold without leaving residues, which is essential for achieving high-quality, clean castings. This feature also helps reduce processing time and increases overall production efficiency.

Environmentally Friendly: We use eco-friendly formulations that ensure minimal impact on the environment while maintaining the high performance required for precision casting.

Customizable Formulations: OKAYAMA GIKEN offers a variety of wax types that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of various casting applications. From standard formulations for general-purpose casting to specialized waxes for more complex or high-performance requirements, we provide the right solution for your needs.
