O’Fallon Casting’s “Investment Casting – 201” is a three day class that is structured to provide an in-depth exposure to the Investment Casting process. IC-201 is held at O’Fallon Casting and combines “hands on” foundry experiences with three hours of class material. IC-201 is a natural follow-on to O’Fallon Casting’s IC-101 and is intended to increase the depth-of-knowledge of customer Designers, Engineers, Quality Engineers and Procurement personnel.
The limited class size of IC-201 allows each customer “student” to fully experience each of the foundry elements including:
- Pattern Injection
- Sprue Assembly
- Gate Grinding
- Welding
- Straightening
- Penetrant Inspection
- Radiography Metrology (including Laser Scanning)
- Laser Marking
- Chemical Spectography

Classroom material presented includes:
- Safety

- Concurrent engineering workshop
O’Fallon Casting will tailor each IC-201 experience to fit the specific needs of that class. To learn more about IC-201 contact your O’Fallon Casting Sales Engineer.
