プロテックジャパン List of Products and Services

Trial molds, simple molds, and small lot die casting refer to manufacturing methods suitable for producing prototypes and mass production in quantities of about 50 to 100 using die casting. Our company achieves short delivery times and low costs through our unique "MC Process." We carefully create a beautiful casting surface and finish small lots with the same precision as mass production processes. For example, a product that typically takes about 35 days and costs around 1 million yen to produce using standard die casting can be reduced to about two-thirds of the time and approximately half the cost using our unique process. Please feel free to contact us when you need our services. 【Reasons for Short Delivery Times】 - Direct processing through the transition from CAD to CAM - Smooth CAD conversion due to high casting technology and know-how - Smooth information exchange of CAD facilitates mutual understanding with customers - Although electrical discharge machining is commonly used in mold manufacturing, we eliminate electrode production and electrical discharge machining, processing everything directly with MC. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We offer low-cost production of prototypes and small lots for "gypsum casting" according to the required quality.

At Protech Japan, we have been handling a large number of "die casts" for many years, allowing us to provide high-precision and high-quality "die casts" at short lead times and low costs, tailored to the required quality. Additionally, we can manufacture molds that enable a smooth transition to mass production by gathering information on the characteristics and evaluations of castings used in prototypes, including gypsum. This technical capability is one of our strengths. Furthermore, through our network of partner companies both domestically and internationally, we can accommodate die casts ranging from 3mm to 800mm. [Features] - Extensive delivery record in the telecommunications and optical components industries - Ability to manufacture molds that facilitate a smooth transition to mass production - Support for die casts ranging from 3mm to 800mm *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

The casting method of pouring melted alloy into a mold made of sand and solidifying it is called "sand casting." In the past, wooden molds were predominant, but our company proposes appropriate materials, including durable resins, to meet customer needs. We provide total solutions for customer concerns and requests related to "sand casting," addressing common issues with cast products, as well as offering heat treatment, machining, and surface treatment. 【Features】 ■ Low cost ■ Quick response for product launches ■ Capable of handling a wide range of products, including large items ■ Suitable for prototypes and small lot production ■ A wide selection of steel materials available *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

"Gravity" (aluminum die casting) is a casting method that involves pouring molten aluminum alloy into a mold and shaping the product using the weight of the aluminum itself. It is easy to automate and can produce products with excellent internal quality. This method allows for superior precision and hardness, resulting in products with a good surface finish, achieving quality that surpasses sand castings. Our company accommodates a wide range of sizes from 100g to 80kg. Even for two-dimensional products that require strength, we can create products with a dense structure by adopting a one-step forging press finishing method. 【Features】 ■ High precision and smooth surface finish ■ Suitable for the production of intricate molds ■ Capable of mass production *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

"Lost wax" is a type of precision casting that achieves significantly high dimensional accuracy and beautiful surface finish. Additionally, it has the potential to reduce costs through process integration of multiple parts, and precision casting of titanium is also possible. At our company, we provide total solutions to our customers' concerns and requests, including not only materials but also appropriate processing and surface treatment that meet their needs. [Features] ■ Achieves high dimensional accuracy and beautiful surface finish ■ A wide selection of steel materials, easy material changes ■ Affordable molds, capable of handling complex shapes *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is a processing method that involves mixing metal powder in a powdered form with a binder, injecting it into a mold, and then sintering it after debinding to manufacture metal products. It achieves high precision and beautiful finishes even for insert molding, small holes, and complex shapes. Additionally, it can accommodate complex shapes and three-dimensional curves. It is also suitable for manufacturing thin and slender items. 【Features】 - Insert molding is possible - Suitable for small products, capable of complex shapes and three-dimensional curves - Beautiful surface finish - High precision - No casting defects - Reduction in processing time *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

Our castings provide customers with peace of mind and satisfaction through quality and precision that truly reflect Japanese standards, backed by years of accumulation and research and development. We manufacture industrial parts from various types of aluminum alloys, accommodating items ranging from small pieces weighing a few hundred grams to those around one ton. We have a proven track record in aluminum cast parts that require stable high quality, from industrial products such as automotive engines to FA robots and large equipment operating on factory lines. With our accumulated casting knowledge and technology, we also offer proposals for efficient casting. 【Equipment Owned (Partial)】 ■ Molding Facilities - Fran organic self-hardening sand treatment plant - Toyo Casting Machine sand treatment plant (5t/h) - Toyo Casting Machine chemical flow mixer (5t/h) ■ Finishing Facilities - Band saw - Shot blast machine (250k) *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

In the early stages of product development, "prototyping" to bring ideas to life is an essential process for manufacturing companies. However, when asked, "What is prototyping?" there may be surprisingly few sales representatives who can explain the specific content and processes involved. In recent years, as there is a demand for quick turnaround and low-cost prototypes, methods such as "simple die casting" and "simple molds" have gained attention. This article will present an easy-to-understand overview of prototyping, from the basics to the potential for product validation using simple die casting, from the perspective of sales representatives. *For detailed content of the article, please refer to the PDF document.
