Design, Manufacturing and Development of Hybrid Manufacturing System for Rapid Investment Casting
DownloadSpring 2024
Direct rapid investment casting integrates additive manufacturing (AM) technology into conventional investment casting. This approach addresses the challenges of high lead time and cost but is effective only on a small scale (up to a cube of 0.3 m side). It utilizes thermoplastics such as...
