Prototype Die Casting
Developing a new product requires prototypes that accurately represent the final production quality. KenWalt Die Casting provides prototype die-casting services to help manufacturers test designs, refine performance, and transition smoothly to full production. Our engineering team creates precise, functional prototypes that perform under real-world conditions.
KenWalt’s advanced die-casting technology produces high-quality aluminum and zinc prototypes for our customers. We have over 50 years of experience and are known for accuracy, durability, and quick turnaround times. Our comprehensive prototyping services help customers validate designs efficiently and avoid costly production delays.
Fast and Reliable Prototype Die Casting
Our prototypes simulate the specifications and performance of production parts. The vacuum-assisted die-casting process minimizes porosity, improves structural integrity, and supports complex geometries with tight tolerances. KenWalt’s team can produce a single prototype or a small batch of your components for more extensive testing.
- Quick turnaround times to support product development
- Aluminum and zinc prototypes hold up to real-world testing
- Engineering support for design optimization
- Scalable manufacturing to move seamlessly into full production
- In-house machining and finishing for production-ready components
Precision Engineering for Functional Prototypes
KenWalt’s prototype development process tests manufacturability, performance, and cost-efficiency through:
- 3D metal flow simulation predicts material flow and optimizes gating design
- Vacuum die casting enhances density and reduces porosity
- Multi-cavity tooling allows for cost-effective prototype production
- Rapid tooling solutions for short-run and pre-production parts
Advantages of Prototype Die Casting
Our prototypes simulate the specifications and performance of production parts. The vacuum-assisted die-casting process minimizes porosity, improves structural integrity, and supports complex geometries with tight tolerances. KenWalt’s team can produce a single prototype or a small batch of your components for more extensive testing.
- Material Consistency – Prototypes simulate the mechanical properties of full-production die-cast parts.
- Cost Efficiency – Lower per-unit costs for small runs than machining or additive manufacturing.
- Design Validation – Real-world testing before committing to full-scale tooling.
- Production-Ready Results – Parts transition smoothly into manufacturing with minimal adjustments.
