Production capabilitiesM2DO / 03

The pattern, ready for the next step.

From file assessment to packaging. We select materials, technologies and processes around your artwork and the foundry.

Pattern with gates and vents, prepared for the foundry
READY CASTINGThe M2DO product: the sacrificial pattern

Project reading

File review plus the information the file cannot contain: scale, critical tolerances, material, later operations, quantity and destination.

Sectioning strategy

Orientation, sections, alignment and joint strategy for geometry that requires multi-part production.

Casting preparation

Surface work, assembly, sealing and details agreed with the receiving foundry.

Checks

Visual inspection, critical-dimension verification and leak testing when required by the pattern type and scope.

Protection and logistics

Packaging appropriate to fragile patterns and delivery planning across Italy and Europe.

Coordination

One interface between artist, studio, producer, fabricator and foundry to reduce hidden assumptions and rework.

What we need to begin

  • 3D file and artwork images
  • Final dimensions and number of pieces
  • Metal, foundry and process if already defined
  • Critical surfaces and dimensions
  • Deadline and delivery location
