Solving on-site problems with next-generation casting technology!
"Castings are not suitable for prototyping or small lot production." —Don't you think so? With Castem's "Digital Cast," you can produce casting parts from just one piece without molds by utilizing 3D printing. It offers high freedom of shape and can significantly reduce lead time, costs, and labor. 【Cost Reduction Example】 The part in the thumbnail is a CG manifold that was previously made by machining two parts and then welding them together. Additionally, due to the special material Inconel 625, it was sourced from overseas processing companies, making it a quite high-cost part in the past. However, by creating it as a single molded piece, we achieved a cost reduction of up to 80% and improved strength. "I want to verify shapes that cannot be achieved through machining" and "I want to test with the same material as the final product." We can solve these development challenges with our next-generation precision casting technology, Digital Cast. If you have 3D data, just leave the rest to us. We will provide precision cast products quickly!

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.
