Christy Minerals Fused Silica Rapid Cast System
Highlights
- Designed to improve shell throughput by reducing the number of dips
- Dual thixotropic nature helps build thin shell sections while also building thickness
- Requires less frequent liquid additions to maintain slurry viscosity
- Helps provide improved knockout for quicker de-shell
- System is comprised of Christy Minerals Fused Silica Rapid Cast Flour and Christy Minerals Rapid Cast Accelerator
Christy Minerals Fused Silica Rapid Cast System is a slurry system designed to offer foundries a more effective way to build better investment casting shells. The system is comprised of Christy Minerals Fused Silica Rapid Cast Flour and Christy Minerals Rapid Cast Accelerator. The system is proven to reduce the number of dips by 35-50%.
Improving Shell Room Throughput
Manufacturers are always looking for ways to increase throughput in and out of the shell room. Christy Minerals Fused Silica Rapid Cast System represents a major advancement for foundries to realize that goal.
When manufacturers use the Christy Minerals Fused Silica Rapid Cast System in their investment casting operations, they can use the same slurry for building detail and thickness. This helps reduce the time spent on shell production, increasing productivity. A second benefit of this new slurry system is a reduced need for constant attention of liquid level adjustments. Plus, due to a dramatic improvement in shell knockout, manufacturers can often eliminate the standard molten caustic step altogether. These benefits together represent a solution that allows manufacturers to increase production capacity without increasing their footprint.
