Answer / siva varun

investment castings are used for casting high melting metals
to have zero allowances/draft(dimensional tolerances due to
shrinkage). Here the shell system used(mold) can only be
used once. The shells generally used are made out of wax.
The mould melts as the refractory metal solidifies.

I currently use 17-7 PH stainless which is hardened to condition CH after forming. raw matl is .1.75"X .12" X .008". Its main usage after hardening is silicon wafer retainer where it's contantly cycled up and down to putin and remove wafer after 40-60 sec process at 400C temp. At this high temperature this part seemed to deform after a a couple of hundred wafer which is what it was designed for in the first place. THere is a proposal to go to a different material to increase lifeline of this part. My question is..... can 321 SST be a plugin replacement. I know this has a higher temp rating but how about its forming characteristics, will it have spring properties, and wont become brittle after prolonged exposure to 400C.
