Short answer: Investment casting (lost-wax casting) builds a ceramic shell around a wax pattern, melts the wax out, and pours molten metal into the cavity to make near-net-shape parts with tight tolerances, thin walls and excellent surface finish that are impossible or uneconomic by sand or die casting. It suits stainless, carbon and alloy steel, aluminium, bronze and superalloys for valves, pump bodies, turbine blades, medical and aerospace components in low-to-medium volumes.
