The Lost Wax casting process uses an aluminium model into which wax is poured to represent the part. This wax is dipped into a ceramic slip which, combined with a succession of sand blasts, forms a shell that serves as a mould after steaming to remove the wax. The liquid metal is then poured into this mould to produce the required part.

The "Colloidal Investment Casting" process is an improved version of the traditional Investment Casting method. In this technique, a colloid, which is a dispersal of very fine particles in a liquid, is added to the wax solution used to create the mould. This produces a more uniform and robust mould, resulting in better quality final parts with even more precise tolerances.
