Investment cast parts for mechanical engineering
SBV Stahltechnik offers investment cast parts from a single source. Precise components with exact fit, consistent dimensional accuracy, and reliable repeatability are standard for us. This results in economical series production that guarantees the highest quality and reliability even with the most demanding geometries.
Why investment casting enables robust components in mechanical engineering
Components in construction and agricultural machinery or in brewery systems operate under strong mechanical stress and in contact with moisture, dirt, and chemicals. Conventional methods reach their limits here, as welded joints crack and milled geometries wear out under continuous load.
Our investment cast parts for mechanical engineering are created in a process where even complex internal structures are cleanly implemented. As a result, the components combine high stability with homogeneous material properties throughout the cross-section. For use, this means longer service life, less maintenance, and permanently robust function even under harsh conditions.
Typical investment cast parts in mechanical engineering
Structural and supporting elements
Supporting components for construction and agricultural machinery are manufactured by us through investment casting in such a way that they can bear large loads and remain permanently stable. Due to their exact fit, they integrate directly into assemblies without requiring rework.
Housings and valve bodies
We cast hydraulic or mechanical housings with smooth surfaces and defined cavities. These properties ensure permanently tight connections and extend the lifespan of the entire assembly.
Components for brewery systems
We manufacture components for brewery systems with hygienically impeccable surfaces. The smooth transitions without dead spaces facilitate cleaning and sterilization, supporting consistently safe operation.
Connection elements and adapters
Connections such as adapters, couplings, or special fastenings are created in an investment casting-friendly manner. They withstand mechanical forces and simplify assembly in complex systems due to their precision fit.

SBV Stahltechnik as a partner for investment cast parts in mechanical engineering
Processing as specified
We thoroughly examine drawings and 3D data and develop geometry optimizations for optimal investment casting results if necessary. This results in parts ready for assembly that fit precisely into your assemblies.
Plants in Asia for cost-effective production of TOP parts
Each foundry location has over 100 CNC machining centers and more than 20,000 square meters of production space available.
Technical consultation
We advise on geometry, material selection, and casting-friendly design. With us, you speak directly with experts.
Certified processes
Our production plants are certified according to IATF 16949, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and ISO 50001. This means we meet the highest requirements for quality, environment, and occupational safety.
Logistics with planning reliability
We align deliveries flexibly according to your needs, whether call-off, buffer storage, or complete lot. This ensures continuous supply and prevents production downtimes.
Hardening shop in Germany
Our hardening shop increases the surface hardness of stainless steel without reducing corrosion resistance. As a result, the components withstand friction, saltwater, and mechanical continuous stress.
Your advantages with our investment cast parts
Complex shapes and robust components
Investment casting produces intricate structures and massive components in a single operation. This saves you processing steps and allows the use of parts that can withstand great forces in operation.
Precision fit and less rework
Tight tolerances allow for the direct integration of investment cast parts for mechanical engineering into existing assemblies. This reduces inspection effort and rejects. At the same time, you ensure stable processes in assembly and operation.
Materials for every stress
Stainless steels like 1.4404 or 1.4408 resist water, dirt, and chemicals even under harsh conditions. These properties make them especially suitable for brewery systems as well as construction and agricultural machinery.
Series production with cost advantage
Investment casting enables small and medium series with consistent dimensional accuracy. This allows you to plan your processes reliably, reduce material costs and ensure a permanently high availability of your systems.

How a project with SBV Stahltechnik proceeds
We accompany every project in investment casting from the first contact to the final delivery. Our goal is an accurate, economically sensible solution that integrates reliably into your processes. The process is clearly structured and coordinated by a dedicated contact.
Inquiry and initial examination
You send us a drawing and 3D data, ideally with material preference, quantity, and information about the application area. We check the technical feasibility and provide you with an initial assessment.
Consultation and offer phase
We clarify open questions, advise on casting and manufacturing technical design, and choose the appropriate stainless steel grade with you if necessary. You then receive a non-binding offer with delivery time, tooling costs, and project planning.
Toolmaking and sample production
After commissioning, a final simulation is carried out to ensure an optimal casting process. We create the wax tool and produce initial samples for dimensional inspection, function evaluation, and approval.
Series approval and production
After your approval, we start series production. The components are cast, mechanically processed and/or heat-treated as needed, and packaged ready for shipment after the final inspection.
Delivery on demand
We deliver the finished investment cast parts on call, in specified lot sizes, or as a complete batch. Intermediate storage in Germany is available if needed.
