Would you like to try manufacturing the parts currently made by cutting and welding at a lower cost and with a shorter delivery time?
Would you like to try manufacturing parts currently made through cutting and welding at a lower cost and with a shorter delivery time? The parts in the image were originally produced by machining two separate components and then welding them together. Due to the special material known as Inconel 625, sourcing from overseas manufacturers was necessary, which increased costs. Additionally, this material is prone to work hardening, making machining very difficult. However, all these issues can be resolved with the mold-free, multi-material casting method called Digital Cast! The key points of Digital Cast are as follows: ✅ The shortest delivery time is one week ✅ More than 70 types of materials (casting materials) can be selected ✅ Production is possible from just one piece ✅ No mold costs We also welcome inquiries for prototypes and small-lot mass production with an eye on mass production! We will flexibly respond to your needs, so if you have parts under consideration for weight reduction or shape changes, please feel free to contact us. What is Digital Cast? It is a method of producing metal products by creating a resin model with a 3D printer and then following a process similar to lost-wax precision casting. Castings can be handled in as little as one week, starting from just one piece. We will provide proposals that offer benefits even in development and prototyping.

basic information
**Digital Cast of Castem** ■ Process 1. 3D Printing Shape the model using a 3D printer (resin material). 2. Ceramic Coating Coat the wax tree with ceramic liquid and powder in approximately 4 to 6 layers. 3. Mold Firing Completely eliminate the 3D printed model at high temperatures and fire the ceramic mold. 4. Casting Pour molten metal into the mold. ■ Compatible Sizes Up to 500 mm square. ■ Steel Types In addition to iron, stainless steel, aluminum, and copper (including pure copper), we can accommodate a wide range of needs including special alloys (such as duralumin A7075 and nickel alloys), heat-resistant steel, tool steel, and high-speed steel.

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.
