View castingTHE LOST FOAM PROCESS
Complex shapes.
Fewer separate parts.
An evaporative pattern creates the space for the metal casting.
The original Bicasting site highlighted weight reduction, fewer machining operations and consolidation of multiple parts as reasons to consider lost foam casting. Results depend on the design, material and manufacturing route.

Let’s make the
details clear.
Have a specific component in mind? Share the drawing and the requirements that matter.
Contact our teamWhat materials does Bicasting work with?
The original Bicasting website lists gray iron, ductile iron, carbon steel and alloy steel for its lost foam casting work. Your exact grade and specification should be included in an inquiry.
What should I include in a casting inquiry?
Include a drawing or 3D model, material grade, expected quantity, critical dimensions, finish and inspection requirements. Please attach drawings in your email.
What is lost foam casting?
Lost foam casting uses an expendable foam pattern. Molten metal replaces the pattern within the mold to form the casting. Pattern design, coating, sand and pouring conditions are reviewed together.
Can several parts become one casting?
Part consolidation is one of the benefits highlighted by the original site. Feasibility depends on geometry, material, tooling and the requirements of your assembly.
