Cost-Effectiveness

Water glass (sodium silicate) is an affordable material, making this process more economical compared to other investment casting methods, especially for high-volume production.

Shorter Production Cycles

The process involves faster mold preparation and curing times, enabling quicker turnaround times for production, which is ideal for meeting tight deadlines.

High Precision and Detail

Water Glass Casting can produce complex geometries and intricate designs with excellent dimensional accuracy, making it suitable for components with fine details.

Smooth Surface Finish

The process yields components with a high-quality surface finish, reducing the need for additional machining or polishing in many cases.

Versatility in Material Compatibility

It supports a wide range of metals and alloys, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and non-ferrous metals, making it adaptable to various industry requirements.

Eco-Friendly and Sustainable

Water glass is non-toxic and environmentally friendly compared to some other binding agents, aligning with sustainable manufacturing practices.

Uses VDG P690 international standard casting tolerance. It is a standard developed by the Association of German Foundry Experts that specifies linear dimensional tolerances for castings.
