Abstract:
Equiax and directional solidification investment casting furnace designs are discussed in the context of improved productivity and yield for the investment caster. Current design features, configurations, and options to address process needs, facility constraints, and productivity are reviewed. This manuscript further highlights how these furnace features and design choices can reduce casting defects and improve product yield. Finally, emerging technologies that may provide further enhancements for investment casting productivity and yield are considered.
