Investment casting is a popular process for making small, accurate castings. A ceramic shell is formed around a part made of wax. This wax is then melted creating a ceramic mold in which alloys is poured in. The removal of that ceramic shell and core after the casting process is complete has traditionally been a difficult and messy process.

Manual operations like hammering followed by shot blasting and chemical leaching drive up cost, and make for inefficient and unsafe conditions.
