Defense platforms demand components that are lightweight, dimensionally precise, and built to perform in extreme conditions.

When a tactical missile manufacturer needed a hollow thin-wall fin assembly with tight tolerances and repeatable production quality, traditional machining methods fell short. Wisconsin Investcast developed a specialized investment casting solution capable of producing the complex geometry while minimizing secondary machining and maintaining strict process control.

From ATACMS and HIMARS to Standard Missile applications, advanced investment casting plays a critical role in supporting next-generation defense systems.

Manufacturing complex metal components doesn’t always require traditional tooling. With Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF), engineers can rapidly prototype, reduce material waste, and create intricate internal geometries that conventional manufacturing methods can’t easily achieve.

At MetalTek, we combine additive manufacturing with decades of casting expertise to help customers determine the right process based on:
✔ Part complexity
✔ Production volume
✔ Lead time requirements
✔ Performance demands

Whether you’re validating a design before tooling or producing low-volume high-performance components, LPBF opens new possibilities for modern manufacturing.

Learn how Laser Powder Bed Fusion works, and when it makes the most sense for your application.
