Gujarat Alloys Cast Private Limited

We possess all in house facilities for the production and testing of investment castings right from design to final inspection equipped with exhaustive tool room. We offer total design support for fast, integrated production and yes, economically viable too. We possess in-house CAD facilities to provide on time support to our valued customers. We prepare 3D Models to analyze the feasibility of manufacturing, production bottlenecks, if any, are conveyed to customer well in advance to ensure fast solutions, timely delivery and compliance with customer's requirements.

Today with the help of the modern technology "Lost Wax Casting" Process is being used to produce casting for almost all engineering fields especially for critical and complex items like aerospace components, valves for gas and oil etc. The modern lost wax process at GACL Involves the following steps... We prepare our product drawing with the help of CAD or manually and based on the drawing, the dies are developed from mild steel or Aluminum material Molten wax is injected into the mould under pressure using wax injection presses and after specified time the mould opened to reveal a perfect copy of the original. Multiple wax patterns are then mounted around a stem of wax to create a "tree". Plaster type slurry is repetitively (the coating parameters varies based on the type of the component) coated on these "trees", which sets solid on the wax patterns. Then these trees are heated to melt out the wax inside the cavities. After proper dewaxing and cooling process the shells are ready to receive molten metal to formulate the original casting. The required material is melted in induction furnace as per the relevant standards then the molten material poured in to the pre-heated shells. Online chemical analysis with Spectrometer is being carried out for each and every batch of molten metal. After proper cooling, the shell is removed and castings are cut out from the trees then they pass through fettling, Heat Treatment, Blasting, Inspection, Packing and Dispatch. During all the above stages each wax pattern and shell are continuously monitored to ensure dimensional accuracy, finishing, similarity etc.

Our investment casting unit is capable to handle castings weighing right from few grams to 50 kgs per piece.
