We employ special methods for casting production such as LOST FOAM, SANDPRINT, or PATTERN PRINT. Leveraging our understanding of modern processes, FOCAM has successfully realized countless castings using Rapid Prototyping methods.
3D patterns printing based on specifications and drawings (2D or 3D datas)
The pattern, whether created traditionally or via 3D printing, serves as the basis for creating the mold. In the case of higher casting series, the free 3D pattern can be mounted on a board or plywood for stability and repeated use.

3. Printing pattern
4. Moulding
Methods of printed molds and cores are utilized in special cases for producing highly complex castings. This technology enables the creation of a mold without the need for a pattern, significantly reducing the production process. Molds for 3D printing are designed so that if a prototype casting is approved for series production, the casting can be formed on a conventional pattern equipment or a combination of pattern equipment with printed cores.
