Even small lots can be MIM-processed for small parts!!
Introducing the MIM (Metal Injection Molding) type for small lot production! We can accommodate limited editions of fewer than 100 pieces with MIM! Mold costs start at 190,000 yen, making extremely small lots possible! For more details, please contact us. 【What is MIM (Metal Injection Molding)?】 Also known as metal powder injection molding, it is a method of injecting metal powder to create parts. It excels in producing extremely small metal components with high precision, complex shapes, and three-dimensional geometries that are difficult to machine. Our company is the only one in Japan that develops the raw materials used for MIM in-house.

basic information
About Castem Co., Ltd. We primarily focus on the manufacturing and sales of precision parts for various industries such as trains, machine tools, and medical devices, utilizing lost-wax precision casting and metal injection molding (MIM) technologies. Leveraging this expertise, we began planning, manufacturing, and selling products aimed at individual customers in 2017. We have been generating significant attention by creating unique anime, manga, and sports-related goods, including metal objects of famous athletes' and idols' handprints and monster ball insect cages. Additionally, we are constantly challenging ourselves in manufacturing that transcends metal and conventional thinking, with projects such as paper airplanes, spinning top battles, a CT scan studio (Kyoto Saiin), and Panipani Farm (Miyako Island).

Company information
With a posture of "just half a step" without complacency, we have cultivated "lost wax precision casting" over many years. Utilizing 3D printing technology, we offer next-generation precision casting technology called "Digital Cast." We obtained a U.S. patent for "MIM (Metal Injection Molding)" in 1991. We provide optimal proposals using various technologies and thoroughly support our customers' manufacturing! 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 an integrated in-house system. 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 also 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 related to consideration time and product costs. More than half a century ago, Castem began its casting business by handcrafting machine tools. Today, we have become a leading company in Japan for manufacturing general industrial components using lost wax casting and are also engaged in the production of micro lenses and micro needles using the world's highest precision 3D light shaping technology.
