Stainless Steel Investment Casting with SBV
Series-ready precision solutions from a single source
SBV Stahltechnik delivers stainless steel investment castings that perfectly combine complex geometry, series quality, and economical production.
Our casting solutions are developed in proven collaboration with a long-standing joint venture in China and Thailand, supervised and quality assured from Germany.
Why investment casting with SBV?
Investment casting is particularly suitable for applications where:
- Geometrically demanding shapes (e.g., cavities, flowing transitions) are required
- Traditional methods (machining, forming) reach their limits
- Functional details should be integrated rather than assembled
- High volumes with reproducible dimensional accuracy are needed
- Media- or temperature-resistant stainless steels are demanded
SBV supports each project with technical consulting, feasibility analysis, and a dedicated contact person. Our customers receive no standard products, but individual solutions – cast, machined, heat-treated, and delivered just-in-time.
Technological edge in detail: At SBV, you get more than the standard
Whether it’s housings with organic structures, flow-optimized impellers, or high-strength functional parts. We make your component castable and produce it fully machined and ready for use if desired.

Project process at SBV
Inquiry & initial evaluation
A drawing and/or CAD model is sufficient – we check feasibility, material selection, and castability, including evaluation of the required tolerances, in close consultation with our customers.
Consultation & offer
Technical clarification, material consulting, and casting optimization – from this we create a reliable offer including tooling costs, delivery time, and processing options.
Tool construction & prototypes
Upon commissioning, we start with tool manufacturing and initial samples for dimensional inspection, if necessary, with initial sample test report (EMPB). Alternatively, small series or prototypes can also be produced without tools using 3D printers.
Series production & processing
Casting, demolding, mechanical processing, surface finishing, and heat treatment – all from a single source.
