Today, investment Casting is a highly specialized method of producing near net shape. Itsadvantages are smooth and pleasing finish, reduced machining allowances, close tolerances, flexibility ofalloy selection etc. The steps of investment casting are wax injection, assembly; shell building, dewaxing, pouring, knock-out, cut-off and finishing. Investment casting is known for its precision casting.In investment casting process various design and process parameters are responsible for the quality of endproduct. Practically identify the effect of those parameter is vary laborious, costly and time consumingand to overcome these problems various simulation software like ANSYS, Pro-cast, Autocast etc can beused.
