Lost Wax Casting process

  • Mold Creation: The wax model is coated with a heat-resistant material (like ceramic) to form a mold. 

  • Wax Removal: The mold is heated, causing the wax to melt and evaporate, leaving a hollow cavity. 

  • Metal Pouring: Molten metal is poured into the cavity, filling the space where the wax once was. 

  • Casting: After cooling and solidification, the mold is broken away to reveal the cast metal object.
