Robocasting
Precision Robocasting for Complex, One-Time Designs
At One-Off Castings, we specialize in advanced robocasting—a patternless, tech-forward casting method built for speed, flexibility, and precision. This process merges traditional foundry craftsmanship with digital manufacturing to deliver custom, high-quality components, perfect for prototypes, R&D, or low-volume production.

future of casting.
Four in-house ABB robotic molders bring patternless precision to every job — no tooling, no minimums — building accurate, repeatable molds straight from your CAD file.
Start Your Project
ABB IRB 6700 · 4400 · 4600 How Robocasting Works
From CAD file to poured part.
You Provide the 3D Model
Our robocasting process starts with your CAD file. From there, we design a mold package tailored to your part specifications.
Custom Mold Creation
We use your 3D model to generate a precise mold using our robotic systems—cutting weeks off typical lead times compared to traditional pattern-making.
Built for Flexibility
Need to tweak your design later? No problem. Robocasting allows for quick changes and updates, making it an ideal solution for one-off or prototype parts that might evolve.
