Abstract
In this article, various research possibilities to improve the investment cast mold’s characteristics have been outlined for field applications. The reported literature highlights that various input parameters like ingredients of the molding sand, dry strength, collapsibility, cavity precision, surface finish, and heat transfer rate are some of the significant parameters for controlling the mechanical/metallurgical properties of final cast component. The inclusion of organic and inorganic fibers can further enhance the strength and dimensional stability along with reduction in the cost and time associated with the fabrication. Furthermore, with the invention of additive manufacturing technologies it is now possible to create a customized cavity directly from the computer-aided design file, through a series of established process especially for batch production activities.
