Advantages for Producers and users

Benefits compared with sand casting

  • high and consistent dimensional accuracy

  • exceptional surface finish 

  • reduced casting weight 

  • consistent casting quality

  • waste streams minimised

  • VOCs eliminated during casting as no gas is evolved from the inert ceramic

  • hot-tear defects and sand inclusions eliminated

  • reduced finishing costs 

  • reduced machining costs

  • optimisation of casting design by eliminating parting lines, cores and draft angles, and reducing feed metal

  • more castings per melt

  • twice the sales value from the same floorspace

Savings compared with lost wax

  • increased productivity due to fewer shell coats and accelerated drying 

  • lower material costs per kg of finished casting 

  • lower pattern costs 

  • efficient manufacture of larger castings - components in excess of 800kg have been cast at Cti
