You can create it from just one piece, with a minimum of one piece and a shortest time of one week for mold-less casting.
When you need prototype parts while repeatedly making design changes during development, when there is no stock of parts and you need a quick fix, or when you suddenly want original jigs for on-site work... Isn't there a limited and fixed mindset regarding the ordering sources and manufacturing methods when the required quantity is small? Considering cost and delivery time, options like mold production for repeat mass production or casting methods for metal products are not viable, right? Therefore, if needed, we propose mold-less casting digital cast with the catchphrase "Just make it from one piece." With zero mold costs and a delivery record of as short as one week, you can order custom-made cast products starting from just one piece. Since the original form is a 3D printed item, we can accommodate complex shapes and hollow products that cannot be manufactured with molds. This method is adopted in numerous industries, including aerospace, shipping, automotive, precision machinery, industrial equipment, medical, and construction, and we cater to metal parts manufacturing requests from both corporate and individual customers.

Applications/Examples of results
【Examples】 Industrial machinery, semiconductor components, golf club heads, turbochargers, prototype verification of complex shapes, strength verification of cast products, prototype verification with material changes, original parts manufacturing. 【Example Details】 ■80% Cost Reduction GG Manifold (Aerospace Component) Two parts were manufactured through machining and then welded together. Due to the special material, they were sourced from overseas processing companies, resulting in higher costs. This was resolved with digital casting. With a wide range of compatible materials and integrated molding, there was a significant reduction in costs along with improved quality due to enhanced strength. Material: Inconel 625, Conventional Method: Machining + Welding ■Short Delivery Time Turbine Impeller Parts (Industrial Turbine) For large parts with a diameter of 380mm, conventional methods required 1 to 2 months for mold production. However, with the digital casting method, cast products can be produced without molds, significantly improving delivery times. Additionally, it can accommodate special materials such as heat-resistant steel and duralumin. Material: SCS13 ■Prototype Verification Vehicle Development Prototypes (Next-Generation Mobility) The initial costs associated with mold production and quality concerns after mold creation were resolved with digital casting. Verification of cast products was conducted without molds, alleviating quality concerns. Material: FCD
Detailed information
-
Digital casting is a method of producing metal products by creating resin models with a 3D printer and using them as prototypes in a process similar to lost-wax precision casting. We can accommodate castings in as little as one week, starting from just one piece, and we can offer advantageous proposals for development and prototyping. We also accept custom orders for metal products from individual customers.
-
High-strength aluminum materials can also be cast.

Company information
With a posture of "just half a step" without complacency, we have cultivated "lost wax precision casting" over many years. In 1991, we obtained a U.S. patent for "MIM (Metal Injection Molding)." Utilizing 3D printing technology, we offer next-generation precision casting technology called "Digital Cast." We provide optimal proposals through various technologies! We thoroughly support our customers' manufacturing processes! We specialize in complex three-dimensional shapes in small lots of various types and carry out everything from mold making to casting, machining, and simple assembly in-house. We supply products to various industries, including medical devices, semiconductors, machine tools, and aerospace. "Just make it, from one piece." We can propose a wide range of manufacturing methods from prototype production of one piece to mass production. We enable time savings in searching for various suppliers and considering consultation destinations, becoming a true total cost reduction partner by proposing reductions in management costs associated with consideration time and product costs. More than half a century ago, Castem's casting began with handmade machine tools. Today, we have become a company with the top domestic share in the manufacturing of general industrial parts using lost wax and are also engaged in the production of micro lenses and micro needles using the world's highest precision 3D light shaping technology.
