Wax Casting Pats: A Manufacturing Process for the Ages

In our day and age, technology is everywhere -- but when it comes to one of the most prevalent manufacturing processes in existence, the process has more or less stayed the same for hundreds if not thousands of years. That process is wax casting pat, and it's one of the oldest metalworking processes known to man.

In spite of being such an old process, wax casting pat is an advanced metal forming technique that inexpensively provides high quality metal parts. Unlike other manufacturing processes, wax casting pat is a one to one process, meaning one wax pattern creates one metal part. However, due to the flexibility of the process can easily produce parts of extreme complexity. When combined with modern manufacturing technology, its benefits are multiplied by the ability to more produce a greater volume of parts.

Today, while the underlying science behind wax casting pats remain the same, foundries have used state of the art technology as well as machining equipment to make the procedure more reliable and effective with advanced refractory materials, waxes, computerized process, and quality control equipment.

Modern copper and wax casting pat is used for the fast as well as reliable creation of parts and components that can't be produced by normal manufacturing techniques. For instance, the planes that take us across the country as well as the equipment deployed by the military to defend our country all benefit from precision casting to give them the complicated parts and components they require to function like they do.
