The article presents an analysis of the applicability of the Replicast CS process as an alternative to the investment casting process,

considered in terms of the dimensional accuracy of castings. Ceramic shell moulds were based on the Ekosil binder and a wide range of

ceramic materials, such as crystalline quartz, fused silica, aluminosilicates and zirconium silicate. The linear dimensions were measured

with a Zeiss UMC 550 machine that allowed reducing to minimum the measurement uncertainty.
