What is the optimal solution for the manufacturing methods and materials of water edges, metals, and complex three-dimensional shapes?
The image is a complex-shaped metal artwork installed by the waterside. To accommodate the ultra-complex shapes based on the artist's sensibility, we adopted moldless casting "Digital Cast" based on 3D data. For installation in an outdoor waterside environment, we used a corrosion-resistant duplex stainless steel casting "SCS11." ■ Features of Moldless Casting Digital Cast - The shortest delivery time is one week. Enables speedy production, perfect for prototyping and development. - More than 70 types of materials to choose from, including iron, stainless steel, and copper. Also compatible with special steels and high-strength aluminum materials like "A7075." - Can be manufactured from a single piece. - No mold costs. - Ideal for prototyping and strength verification with multiple materials. - Smooth transition from prototyping to mass production through casting. ■ Features of SCS11 - Superior corrosion resistance in chloride environments compared to general austenitic stainless steels. - High corrosion resistance suitable for use in underwater, marine, and offshore environments. - Proven track record in a wide range of fields, including offshore/marine equipment, medical devices, food equipment, and outdoor installations. - Slightly higher cost compared to general stainless steel, but contributes to total cost reduction through increased longevity. Based on the application and installation location, we will propose the optimal manufacturing method, material, and shape. Please feel free to consult with us.

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.
