Reduction of prototype lead time
A variety of prototype processes enable speedy prototyping of castings!
We propose the optimal prototyping process for castings. We can flexibly accommodate your desired delivery time, quality, and cost, utilizing general sand casting and 3D printing for prototypes. We can handle a wide variety of materials (cast iron, aluminum castings, cast steel), shapes, and sizes. We also provide one-stop support for machining after casting and mass production supply after prototyping verification.
basic information
【Prototyping Process】 - Sand Casting: A common casting method using wooden patterns (Estimated delivery time: 10-30 days) - Additive Manufacturing: Molds are produced using a 3D printer (Estimated delivery time: 5-15 days) - 3D Printed Lost Wax: Wax is produced using a 3D printer (Estimated delivery time: 1-3 weeks) - Machining: Produced from blocks through comprehensive machining (Estimated delivery time: 3-10 days) - Others, including gypsum casting, etc.
