Utilizing lost-wax technology that handles various materials. Leave the prototypes aimed at weight reduction to us!
By reducing weight, we can achieve precision in robot control. In response to customer requests to prototype with topology shapes, we proposed a case of digital casting without molds, which can accommodate orders starting from just one piece. Industry: Industrial Robots Material: AC4C 【What is Digital Casting?】 When considering cost and delivery time, traditional casting methods that require mold production for mass production are not viable options. Therefore, we propose mold-less digital casting with the catchphrase "Just make it from one piece if needed!" With no molds required, zero mold costs, a delivery record of as little as one week, and the ability to custom-make cast products starting from just one piece, we can accommodate complex shapes and hollow products that cannot be manufactured with molds, as the original form is 3D printed. 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 corporations 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】 ■Cost Reduction of 80% GG Manifold (Aerospace Component) Two parts were manufactured through machining and then welded together. Due to the special material, it was sourced from overseas processing companies, leading to increased 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 ■Prototype Verification Vehicle Development Prototype (Next-Generation Mobility) Initial costs from 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

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.
