DVI project methodology is designed to provide the most efficient/effective path between concept and finished part.

The combination of our advanced technology and project methodology is the foundation for our success in rapid prototyping, pattern-making and finished machined casting.

DVI's typical project methodology:

  1. Receive 3D-CAD file or solid model via data transfer

  2. Pattern developed using CAD file

  3. Modelboard pattern cut on CNC machining centers

  4. Mold box built and finished in shop

  5. Casting poured at local foundry

  6. Locator systems designed and developed internally

  7. Casting machined at DVI

  8. Machined castings inspected at DVI

  9. Complete cleaning, assembly, leak testing, painting or coating (if required)

  10. Finished part provided to customer
