Technical Ceramics

Engineered for the
geometry others avoid.

PAMILANGA develops ceramic core solutions for precision investment casting applications where internal geometry, dimensional repeatability and thermal performance are critical.

Our approach begins with the casting requirement rather than a catalogue product. Geometry, material system, tooling route, firing behaviour and removal strategy are evaluated as one engineering system.

From Core to Casting

Internal geometry
begins with the core.

Ceramic cores enable internal passages that cannot be produced through conventional machining after casting. Geometry, dimensional stability, thermal behaviour and removal strategy therefore form part of the component engineering process from the beginning.

GEOMETRYInternal passages and thin-wall features.
STABILITYControlled behaviour through process cycles.
REMOVALPost-casting strategy considered early.
VALIDATIONPrototype learning before repeat production.
Material Selection

Material follows application.

No single formulation is appropriate for every component. Ceramic core material selection is evaluated against the complete casting route and the geometry that must survive it.

01Silica SystemsDimensional behaviour, practical removal and established investment-casting routes.
02Alumina SystemsIncreased thermal and refractory capability for demanding casting conditions.
03Core GeometryWall sections, transitions, passages and unsupported features influence material and process.
04Casting EnvironmentAlloy, shell system, thermal cycle and casting conditions are considered during development.
05Dimensional RequirementCritical geometry and repeatability targets are defined before process lock.
06Core RemovalPost-casting removal requirements influence formulation, geometry and firing strategy.
