Investment casting is a manufacturing process for producing metal parts, also known as "lost-wax casting" or "precision casting". The process uses a soluble mold, called the "investment", to produce the metal parts. The investment can be made using 3D printing or other methods, and is coated with a special material to form a soluble shell. Once the shell is dried, the wax pattern inside the investment is melted and drained, leaving behind a cavity. The metal is then melted and poured into the cavity, which is allowed to cool and solidify. The shell is then broken away and removed from the metal part, resulting in the final metal part.

Investment casting can produce metal parts with high precision and complex shapes because the shell can be made with very fine details and contours, and the metal can fill very small gaps. Additionally, investment casting can use a variety of metal materials, including stainless steel, copper, aluminum, and nickel alloys, as well as various complex internal structures and cavities.

To produce metal parts with high precision and complex shapes, several factors need to be considered. First, precise control of the temperature, time, and pressure parameters during the investment casting process is necessary to ensure that the metal fills every gap and contour. Second, appropriate metal and investment materials need to be selected, and the manufacturing and processing of the investment should be strictly controlled. Finally, strict quality control and inspection are required to ensure that every metal part meets the requirements of high precision and complex shapes.
