This September ICME delivered their Investment casting short course to twenty-two delegates, with industry experts sharing their expert knowledge on a range of discussion points.

Over two days, delegates learned the technical processes, methods, and definitions behind Investment Casting. ICME’s course topics included an introduction to the investment casting process, slurry analysis and control, wax and core removal, as well as a discussion of some future advancements and trends in the Investment Casting industry.  A variety of speakers and experts from all areas of the industry delivered the course lectures, ensuring that participants benefited from their experience gathered over many years in the industry.

What our delegates had to say

Much praise was given to the course, with delegates feeding back the following:

“The course is very interesting, and I have learned a lot more about casting. The course was very enjoyable, and I would recommend it to anybody. This will definitely help and improve my job.”

“A highly informative course. I learned a few things that will help me with my work, and a few grey areas of the process were explained, that I was previously unaware of. I would highly recommend this course to anybody in the industry, regardless of their current knowledge level.”
