Casting Capabilities Brochure
By combining the technological advantages of Induction Skull Melting (Patent No. BI 4, 738, 713) with specially modified investment molding and rammed refractory processes, Flowserve is able to routinely provide high quality, competetively priced castings. Moreover, customers enjoy the benefits of its patented Flowtherm™ process, which doubles and may even triple the impact properties of its Zirconium 705 castings.
