ABSTRACT:
A method for pressure infiltration casting is provided wherein steps of preheating and evacuating a mold cavity and infiltrant charge are carried out in a separate vessel from a pressure vessel wherein the mold cavity is filled, allowing for rapid finished article throughput. An apparatus for pressure infiltration casting is also provided.
