Kovatch Castings is a great Ohio-based company that provides the finest commercial investment castings available. Kovatch Castings makes their products here in the USA. They are known for manufacturing high tech investment castings in various industries globally including aerospace and military to name a few.

Investment casting is an industrial process that is also called lost-wax casting. It is one of the oldest known metal-forming techniques.  Thousands of years ago, beeswax was used to form a pattern (or mold) that would then be filled with metal to allow production of parts of various shapes and sizes. This was an investment casting process that was often difficult to achieve consistent quality production results. The tolerances (variances in production quality) were so great that often times the parts would fail, and making new parts was very time consuming and tedious with no guarantee that the part would be any better than the ones previously created.

Investment casting today utilizes high-technology waxes, refractory materials and specialist alloys.  The castings allow the production of components with accuracy, repeatability, versatility, and integrity in a variety of metals and high-performance alloys. Kovatch Castings has been the investment castings industry leader for the past 36 years thanks to their rigid quality control and adherence to AS9100 specifications. These rigid quality specifications, as well as full process monitoring, are how Kovatch Castings assures you of a high quality investment casting product, one that has been strictly controlled for quality from start to finish.

The investment casting process with Kovatch Castings will give you peace of mind, knowing that every product they make for you is of the highest quality. Kovatch even goes a step further when it comes to quality control and controlling the entire investment casting process. They perform testing of incoming metals and the control of alloys. To ensure constant manufacturing controls and non-destructive testing, every step of the investment casting process is closely monitored.

Their process ensures the production of world class precision investment castings for you. Now you may be asking yourself, “So, what about the cost of the investment casting process? Is it expensive?” The following are a few of the cost advantages of investment castings, or lost wax castings if you prefer:

You can order types ranging from Prototype quantities to Long Production Runs.

Lost wax casting provides near net shape which lowers material usage. Because parts do not need to be remade, material costs are dramatically reduced.
