Renishaw offers vacuum casting as a complementary technology to its 3D additive metal systems for the production of high-quality prototypes and short-run production parts. The company incorporates and uses the parts produced by its vacuum casting systems in its own finished products, confirming the high quality of the manufacturing technology.
