Default Can this be cast from Inconel.. ?

Hi Matt,

Sure can...

The wax plugs/masters would be created from a soft tool.

We would make an SLA/FDM/3DP/LOM part from your files. This part would be benched (cleaned-up, polished, etc.) and a soft tool would be made from the component.

We would then cast as many wax masters as you need from the soft tool.

We would need to discuss the final component material and the process to be used for the end product. This would provide the information necessary for shrinkage, etc.

We've done quite a few investment masters for the toy/hobby industry.
