Investment Casting & Foundry Wax Processing Equipment
Wax melting, conditioning, heated holding, transfer, dispensing, dewaxing support and wax-recovery equipment for lost-wax casting, precision foundries and pattern-wax manufacturing.
What the Equipment Must Do
Select the tank and downstream equipment around the material, operating temperature, working volume, hold time and production cadence—not the industry name alone.
Wax condition
Maintain repeatable wax temperature and viscosity for pattern preparation and handling.
Pattern production
Coordinate heated supply with injection, pouring or other pattern-making operations.
Recovery and reclaim
Separate melting/conditioning requirements from wax removal and recovery operations.
Cycle demand
Use recovery-focused heating when frequent wax additions or repeated production cycles create downtime.
Which PRIMO System Fits This Process?
Recommended starting point: Standard PRIMO. For investment casting and foundry wax preparation, Standard PRIMO is the normal starting point for melting pattern wax and maintaining a production-ready supply. PRIMO Thermal Conditioning is preferred when wax properties, viscosity or extended heated holding require a gentler, stability-focused process. Rapid-Cycle is the better choice when repeated wax loading and recovery time constrain high-volume pattern production.
RECOMMENDED STARTING POINT
Melting & Production Holding
Standard PRIMO
Primary recommendation for pattern wax, foundry wax and compatible wax feedstocks requiring efficient melting and production holding.

Controlled Heating & Extended Holding
PRIMO Thermal Conditioning
Choose when extended wax conditioning, viscosity stability or tighter control of thermal exposure is the dominant requirement.

Recovery Speed & Production Throughput
PRIMO Rapid-Cycle
Choose when high-throughput production repeatedly loads the vessel and fast recovery between additions matters.

Typical Thermal-Process Workflow
- 01
Melt and prepare pattern wax.
- 02
Condition or hold it at the required production temperature.
- 03
Use dedicated dewaxing/recovery equipment for wax removal and reclaim stages.
Have WaxMelters Review the Application
Send the material, starting and target temperatures, working volume, hold time, batch frequency, downstream process and available electrical service. For regulated or sanitary processes, also include required surface finish, fittings, cleaning method and facility standards.
