Creating art using the casting process dates back thousands of years as the oldest surviving piece of cast art dates back to 3200 BC. Yet artists today still enjoy creating a range of decorations, statues, figurines, jewelry and other artistic pieces using this process. The procedure involves using molten metals that are poured into a…
This material offers the highest strength and hardness of all the BeCu alloys with excellent wear resistance and fluidity. Also offers extremely fine detail pick-up in ceramic or pressure cast processes. This also has the lowest pouring temperature of the BeCu alloys allowing almost any type of molding process to be used. | |
