The shell moulding process consists in casting liquid metal inside shells with possible internal cores, both formed with sands treated and coated with thermosetting resins.

features

	lack of reactions between metal and sand during the pouring
	the shell permeability removes the risk of internal blowholes
	the metal structure is very fine thanks to the fast cooling
	precision castings with strict dimensional tolerance: CT6- CT7 (ISO 8062)
	uniform surfaces with roughness Ra 6,3
	controlled minimum thickness
	complex internal shapes
	draft angle from 0,5° to 1°
