"Transitioning from cutting processing to new methods" - Improved mass production and significant cost reduction.
Transitioning from cutting processing products to lost-wax casting!
"Switching from Machined Products to Lost Wax Casting!" ✅ Improved Lead Time ✅ Cost Reduction ✅ Comprehensive Quality Measures Previously, we used machined products, but by switching to lost wax precision casting, we have improved mass production capabilities and achieved lead time improvements. Additionally, by reducing material weight by over 100g through thinning, we have made cost reductions possible. Quality measures are also thorough, including countermeasures against voids by ensuring uniform wall thickness and addressing burrs by creating recesses. We have received many inquiries from customers considering the switch from machining to lost wax precision casting due to cost factors. Depending on the desired size and application of the parts, we can also propose other methods such as MIM (Metal Injection Molding) and digital casting (mold-less casting using 3D printed models). For any inquiries regarding metal parts, please feel free to consult with Castem.

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.
