Our Pump Casting Manufacturing Process
At Vimax, our pump castings are produced in a contemporary facility using modern production methodology to ensure optimal near-net shape output that reduces total cost of ownership.
Wax design
Creating wax patterns using engineered dies and molten wax, which are then arranged and attached to a sprue to form a wax pattern tree.
Shell formation
Coating the wax pattern tree with ceramic slurry and then stucco, and this is done up to eight times to create optimally thick ceramic shells.
Shell heating
Inserting the shells in a steam-heated autoclave to melt the wax and leave behind a near-perfect negative cavity in the shell. The shells are then heated in a furnace to remove moisture and residual wax.
Pouring
Adding the molten alloy into the negative cavity and letting it gently cool to prevent hot corners and solidify into near-net castings.
Knocking & Fettling
Fragmenting the shell to extract the fully formed components, which are then sawed off from the sprue, sandblasted, cleaned, and have their gate stubs ground away.
Heat treatment
Inserting the components into induction furnaces to heat them, followed by air cooling to improve metallurgical and physical properties.
Machining
Marking, milling, reaming, and drilling all critical and mating surfaces to improve tolerances, fit, and finish.
Final Inspection
X-ray, Spectrometric analysis, dye-penetrant, and NDT testing; impact, hardness, toughness, and other metallurgical and dimensional checks to ensure product integrity and provide quality assurance.

Do you offer third-party inspection for pump castings?
Yes, we provide third-party inspection support at the client’s request. Assurance partners are mutually agreed upon at the time of project commencement.
Do you offer support for customization?
Yes, we offer support for product customization. We have the design team to bring your concept to life, cast it in your proprietary alloy, and package it as per your requirements. For additional information, please reach out to us.
Who owns the tooling after the project ends?
The question of tooling ownership is decided during the onboarding process. If nothing is communicated, we default to storing the engineered dies on our premises for further use.
