WEIGHT:
270 gr
DIMENSIONS:
100 mm x 65 mm x 20 mm
STEEL:
40CrMo4
CHOSEN PROCESS:
Investment casting
REASON OF OUR CHOICE:
Too low quantity to justify the price for a forging mould

WEIGHT:
17 gr
DIMENSIONS:
ø 20 mm x h 15 mm
STEEL:
FN08
CHOSEN PROCESS:
MIM
REASON OF OUR CHOICE:
Teeth precision, finishing and low weight could not be easily obtain with investment casting. MIM was perfect

WEIGHT:
18 gr
DIMENSIONS:
45 mm x 22 mm x 32 mm
STEEL:
42CrMo4
CHOSEN PROCESS:
MIM
REASON OF OUR CHOICE:
Only feasible with expensive machining technologies. too low Roughness (Ra: 1,2) for investment casting

WEIGHT:
1,2 Kg
DIMENSIONS:
ø 180 mm x h 90 mm
STEEL:
AISI 316
CHOSEN PROCESS:
Investment casting
REASON OF OUR CHOICE:
Sand casting unable to reach required roughness (Ra 3.2).

DIMENSIONS:
34 mm x 11 mm x 16 mm
STEEL:
17-4PH
CHOSEN PROCESS:
MIM
REASON OF OUR CHOICE:
Geometry details and dimensional precision. MIM can guarantee better results than investment casting.

DIMENSIONS:
55 mm x 30 mm x 30 mm
STEEL:
50CrV4
CHOSEN PROCESS:
Investment casting
REASON OF OUR CHOICE:
If MIM was used, too many deformation could have occurred. Final calibration was due, but starting with investment casting was cheaper

WEIGHT:
290 gr
DIMENSIONS:
82 mm x55 mm x 40 mm
STEEL:
AISI 304
CHOSEN PROCESS:
Investment casting
REASON OF OUR CHOICE:
No more welding between flange and pipe required. Casted part is a single part.

STEEL:
AISI 420
CHOSEN PROCESS:
Investment casting
REASON OF OUR CHOICE:
Complex geometry and precision could not be achieved with other technologies.
