Prototype Castings
Unveiling Prototyping Options
What are Prototype Castings?
Prototype Castings are parts made when liquid metal is poured into molds through different casting processes. Variations of metals and alloys are used in producing these parts and can be best selected based on the use of the part or item being made.
Prototype manufacturing and rapid prototyping are ways for companies to have specific parts or products made quickly to give an idea of what finalized parts will be like when released to the market.
Metal castings provide a great benefit to companies because of the speed and high quality of casted metal parts.
Other forms of prototyping may include 3D printing, CNC Machining, Investment Castings.
Prototype Casting of Metal Parts
Prototype castings are a type of manufacturing option for prototypes. This type of manufacturing is best suited for low-volume manufacturing as parts can be produced quickly and cost-effectively.
At Precise Cast, we offer Aluminum, Zinc, and Magnesium castings for prototype production.
Speed – Parts delivered FAST!
Working with Precise Cast gets your parts done quickly! Your castings can be ready in as little as 5 days and Machining as quickly as overnight. Work with a responsive company that can accommodate your needs and was built for speed.

Magnesium
Popular amongst aerospace, automotive, and defense industries because its lightweight and almost no loss of strength for thin walls.
Zinc
Zinc alloys offer many benefits for prototype castings such as thermal conductivity and great strength, making zinc alloy perfect for heavy equipment manufacturers.
Prototype to Production
Because our metal castings are of such high quality and durability, many of our customers will use their prototype parts as their production pieces. The benefit is lower tooling costs, rapid production, and getting your items to market faster! We offer added values services as well, such as :
- Design Assistance
- Heat Tempering and Post Cast tempering
- Testings
- Coastings
- perpetual tooling- We never charge our customers for worn-out tooling
Working with our company, we can machine your metal casting in-house if needed. We offer 3-,4- and 5-axis machining.
Turnkey Prototyping Service
Our company works with many top companies in the North American market. We help design and build many parts you see on the market today. our unique metal casting services provide turnkey prototyping that requires a simple file upload to being the processes.
Our engineers are experts in their craft and can work closely with your product developers to identify any design flaws or improvements prior to your castings, ensuring smooth service and product guarantees.
