Phase 1

Project Setup

  1. Reverse Engineering

    We 3D scan your casting to precisely recreate the model for legacy or undocumented parts.

  2. Submit Your CAD or Concept

    Submit your CAD design or concept for our team to review and assess.

  3. Intro Call & Quote

    We review your goals, provide a tailored quote, and answer any technical or timeline questions.

  4. Submit Purchase Order

    Once approved, your project moves into the production phase.

Phase 2

Engineering & Production

  1. Engineering Review & Simulation

    Our team validates and optimizes your part using CAD and flow/solidification modeling.

  2. Mold & Core Design

    We engineer and simulate the mold for performance, cost-efficiency, and reliability.

  3. Robotic 3D Printing (RoboCast)

    Our ABB robots 3D print your core or mold directly from the model — no patterns needed.

  4. Metal Pouring

    We pour your chosen alloy under tightly controlled conditions, ensuring material integrity and precision.

Phase 3

Quality & Delivery

  1. Cleaning & Laser Scanning

    Parts are cleaned and inspected via FARO scanners and/or CMM tools. Inspection reports available upon request.

  2. Quality Control

    If required, mechanical testing, dimensional reporting, or non-destructive testing (MPI/LPI) is completed.

  3. Shipping & Logistics

    We handle packaging and delivery with full traceability and documentation.
