Besser is one of the largest stainless steel foundries in China. With our decades of the professional stainless steel casting process, We provide you with customized stainless steel casting services to meet your precise design specifications and any required grade.
Stainless steel investment casting is a dewaxing investment casting process in which molten stainless steel material is poured into a mold and allowed to solidify, resulting in a solid stainless steel casting in the desired shape. When we have requirements for the properties and corrosion resistance of steel. Stainless steel castings are a better choice.

304 is widely accepted in the food industry as the standard for cleanliness as well as corrosion resistance.
316 is known for its superior corrosion resistance, making it ideal for many uses including marine environments.
400 series steels are high strength and very machinable. They will tend to break rather than bend under intense pressure.
17-4 is the strongest of the stainless steel family and is used on parts that cannot bend.
The following are the main applications of stainless steel investment castings: Mining, agriculture, energy, military, machine tools, valve bodies, pumps, housings, gears, bushings, handles, marine equipment, medical equipment.














1. Wax Model Making & Assembly
Once the mold is ready, inject wax material into the mold cavity, then take out the wax model from the mold after cooling. Repair some appearance defects of wax models, such as slot, wax injection nozzle, flow pattern, etc. After inspection wax models, weld them to the casting system one by one to form a assembly, which looks like a tree.
2. Shell Building
Shell making process is a whole silica sol process, namely dip the assembly into good colloidal silica coating, sprinkle with fire-resistant sand, dry and harden shell under certain temperature,thus to form dense refractory coating surface outside the surface of wax models, and then repeat the step 5-6, finally form a certain strength and refractoriness of silica sol shell.
3. Dewaxing
Dewaxing is a process in which the wax inside the shell is melted by high temperature steam and then drained out, resulting in a cavity that can be poured into the mold.
4. Pouring
Melt stainless steel ingots into liquid status under a certain high temperature, then pour the liquid into the shell and cool under room temperature. After solidification, knock out the blacks and clean sand.
5. Cutting,Grinding & Surface Finishing
Cut the stainless steel casting blanks from assembly one by one, remove the sprue gate by grinding machine and smooth the surface by various surface finishes, such as shot blasting, sand blasting, electropolishing, mirror polishing, etc.
6. Inspection
After finishing production, inspection is also an indispensable process before delivery. The inspection of stainless steel castings includes dimensional inspection, defects inspection and material inspection. Only qualified products can be shipped to customers.
You’ll get the most significant advantage from using investment castings if your part:
- has a complicated shape that would be difficult or impossible to produce with other casting methods
- requires exceptional surface qualities
- needs tight tolerances
- prefers minimal surface finishing or machining after casting.
- Affordable Tooling: Tooling is the basic step to starting the stainless steel casting process. Although the machining accuracy and material of tooling play an important role in the final casting quality, the tooling of stainless steel is relatively affordable compared with other forming processes.
- Flexible design: Investment casting can cast out stainless steel products in different sizes and weights, so the design of cast stainless steel parts is very flexible. Stainless steel casting allows parts with a minimum 3mm thickness and weights ranging from 0.05kgs-80kgs. Besides, stainless steel castings with complex structures are also castable.
- Close Tolerance: The dimensional accuracy of stainless steel investment casting can meet ISO 8062 CT5-CT6 level. Such close tolerance can ensure stainless steel castings with less or no machining.
- Good Surface: Even after shot blasting, the surface of stainless steel castings is very smooth and looks bright. And people will never worry about stainless steel castings will get rust with time flys.
- High Production Efficiency: Stainless steel casting is a fast and repeatable process, so the production efficiency is very high, and no matter it is a large or small volume, it can all meet.
