Soluble cores
Complex internal features such as swept bends can be formed by the use of soluble cores. Tolerances however may require relaxing.
Wax assembly
Tooling for a complex component can sometimes be simplified by joining two or more patterns together at the wax stage.
Cast gears and teeth
Components requiring teeth for gripping or gear applications may be impossible to produce by machining. The definition achieved by the MM process is ideal for these applications.
Integrally cast rivets can be peened over to give an economic, strong and permanent joint.
