Melting
Melting involves heating the selected metal alloy to its required temperature using induction furnaces or other advanced equipment. At the same time, ceramic molds are preheated to avoid thermal shock during pouring. Once the metal reaches the desired molten state, it is poured into the preheated ceramic shells under controlled conditions.
The molten metal flows through the gating system and fills the cavities completely. This stage requires precise temperature control, proper degassing, and removal of impurities to ensure high-quality casting. The metal then solidifies inside the mold, forming the desired component shape.
