Our Step-by-Step Investment Casting Process.

Investment casting involves a series of carefully controlled steps that transform a wax pattern into a durable, high-precision metal component. Here’s how we do it at Icon Techno Cast:

Die Development

Accurate Die is made from aluminums block on CNC/VMC machines.

Wax Injection

Molten wax is injected into a metal die under controlled pressure and temperature to form precise patterns with fine details.

Pattern Assembly

Multiple wax patterns are assembled onto a wax runner or base, forming a wax tree that's ready to move into shelling.

Shelling

The wax assembly is repeatedly dipped into ceramic slurry and coated with refractory sand to form a hard outer shell.

Dewaxing

The complete shell is placed in an autoclave or furnace to remove the wax, leaving behind a hollow mold.

Shell Pre-heating

The shell is heated at high temperatures to increase its strength and eliminate any residual wax traces.

Metal Pouring

Molten metal is poured into the hot ceramic shell, filling the cavity created by the original wax pattern.

Heat Treatment

Heat treatment is carried out to achieve the desired micro-structure and mechanical properties.

Fettling

Fettling is a post casting process of removing unwanted materials and cleaning the casting to achieve the final desired shape and surface finish.

Visual Casting Inspection

Each part undergoes Visual casting inspection and quality checks as per internal or customer control plan.

Machining

Secondary processes like drilling, threading, or CNC machining are applied for tight tolerances and specific geometries.

Final Dimensional Inspection

Each component undergoes final Visual Casting quality checks as per control plan and customer requirements.

Full traceability, start to finish.

Our ERP system ensures full traceability, real-time production oversight, accurate cost management, and on-time delivery — driving consistent quality and operational excellence across the complete investment casting lifecycle.

Customer-centric support.

Our dedicated team ensures timely communication, expert technical guidance, and swift issue resolution at every stage of the manufacturing and delivery process.
