Connected Capabilities from Design Review to Production
DICASTO combines design review, tooling, die casting, and secondary operations in one manufacturing workflow. This helps identify requirements that affect cost and quality before production begins.
02
Tooling
Develop and prepare the die around part geometry and production requirements
03
Die casting
Manufacture aluminum and zinc components to approved specifications
04
CNC machining
Produce surfaces, holes, and features that require additional precision
05
Finishing
Coordinate trimming, treatment, and finishing operations for the project
06
Prototyping
Support early checks of form and assembly before full tooling investment
Manufacturing Experience Aligned with Each Application
Part requirements change with function and operating conditions. Our team reviews alloy, geometry, finish, and inspection needs before defining the manufacturing route.

- 01
Send the drawing or CAD model, annual volume, alloy, and required finish.
- 02
Our team reviews the design and manufacturing requirements and compiles technical questions.
- 03
We issue the quotation and define tooling and secondary operations after the information is complete.
- 04
The first sample is produced and reviewed before recurring production is approved.
- 05
Production begins with the agreed inspection and documentation requirements.
- 06
Parts are prepared for packing and shipment according to the project requirements.
Quality Starts with the Drawing and Continues Through Final Inspection
Inspection points and required measurements are defined during technical review. Materials, processes, dimensions, and surfaces are checked against the drawing and the specifications approved for each project.
Operating insight
How We Frame Manufacturing Decisions Before Quotation
Strong casting programs are built on clear gates: manufacturability, tooling scope, sample criteria, and production readiness. The charts below show how DICASTO structures technical attention across a typical RFQ-to-production path.

Three decisions that protect cost, timing, and quality
These are the points where incomplete information usually creates rework. Clarifying them early improves quotation accuracy.
01
Lock critical dimensions early
Separate cast features from machined features before tooling investment so tolerances and datum strategy stay realistic.
02
Define sample acceptance up front
Agree visual, dimensional, and documentation criteria before first sample to avoid late commercial and technical resets.
03
Align volume with process route
Match alloy, cavity strategy, and secondary operations to annual volume so unit cost and lead time stay coherent.

Frequently asked questions
What files are required for a quotation?+
A CAD model and 2D drawing are preferred, together with the alloy, volume, finish, and critical dimensions. You may send the available information first, and the team will identify what is missing.
Does DICASTO manufacture tooling?+
Yes. The scope may include tool design, manufacturing, and preparation around the part and production volume after the technical and commercial scope is approved.
Do you work with aluminum and zinc?+
DICASTO supports projects in aluminum and zinc alloys. Final alloy selection depends on the drawing, part function, and customer requirements.
Can you provide CNC machining after casting?+
Yes. Machining may be added for surfaces, holes, threads, and features that require additional precision or finishing.
Can you provide finishing?+
Finishing and treatment can be coordinated according to the alloy and application. The type, color, and acceptance standard should be stated in the RFQ.
