The castings produced by the Silica Sol Casting process have high dimensional accuracy and can reach the CT4-8 level specified in GB/6414-1986. The surface roughness value is low, which can reach RA0.8-6.3μm. No machining; the silica sol casting process also produces castings with more complex geometries
