What is the wax inlay casting process? What are the advantages and disadvantages?
Wax inlay casting process is a kind of jewelry processing, and there are certain requirements for jewelry wax. First, the strength must be strong enough. Second, the jewelry wax must be completely burnt out without leaving material residues. Third, the shorter the melting distance, the better the effect.
Jewelry processing factories use the wax inlay casting process because it has the following advantages: it saves the production time of jewelry processing, which can effectively improve the overall production efficiency; it can save labor costs and increase profits; it can effectively reduce a loss of metal raw materials; It is also possible to reduce the use cost of processing equipment and the like.
But the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, it is easy to cause the gemstone to be impacted by the molten metal during high temperature baking and there is a risk of fragmentation. Even if the temperature is lowered during the wax casting process, the casting is likely to cause pores and sand holes. .
