Breaking Free from Hobbing

Traditionally, gear teeth require a meticulous process called hobbing. This technique involves cutting teeth using a hob to prevent tolerance build-up, ensuring the gear’s smooth functioning. However, advancements in investment casting provide gear teeth that may meet tolerances right from the Shelmet casting process.

The capability to achieve tight tolerances is a testament to the evolving precision of investment casting. This method allows manufacturing of components with intricate geometries and detailed features, such as gear teeth, without the additional step of hobbing. The result provides a streamlined production process that maintains the highest standards of accuracy.

Streamlining Production for Optimal Results

By eliminating extra steps unnecessary with investment casting, achievable tight tolerances significantly reduce production time and associated costs. This efficiency increases inherent casting quality for manufacturers and end-users alike, offering high-quality components at a competitive price.

Crafting Components with Precise Accuracy

The success in manufacturing detailed castings with tight tolerances through investment casting has opened doors to the future of complicated applications. From automotive to energy products to medical to aerospace industries, the demand for components with exacting dimensions increases with technological pressures requiring greater precision. Investment casting already may meet your needs, offering tailored solutions across all sectors.
