THE PRODUCTION OF A DIE-CAST VEHICLE FROM CONCEPT TO COMPLETION IS A LONG PROCESS. THE DESIGN, REFINING AND REALIZATION OF STEEL DIE-CASTING MOLDS MAY TAKE UP TO 10 MONTHS BEFORE THE START OF FINAL PRODUCTION

THE INITIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE PRODUCT FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A DIE CASTING VEHICLE CONSISTS OF THREE PRIMARY PHASES: PRELIMINARY DESIGN, FINAL ENGINEERING AND PROTOTYPING

ONCE THE DEFINITIVE PROJECT IS APPROVED AND THE DESIGNED PROJECTS ARE COMPLETED, A PROTOTYPE OF THE VEHICLE IS CREATED

AFTER APPROVAL OF THE PROTOTYPE, A MASTER PATTERN IS CREATED, THE MASTER PATTERN IS A FINELY ACCORDED REPLY THAT REFLECTS ALL THE DESIGNED COMPONENTS OF THE FINISHED PRODUCT. THE DIE CASTING MOLDS ARE THEN CREATED USING THIS MASTER MODEL AS A GUIDE. THE QUALITY OF THE FINAL PRODUCT IS DETECTED BY THE PRECISION AND ACCURACY OF THESE MOLDS. A LIMITED NUMBER OF PRE-PRODUCTION SAMPLES OR "SHOTS" ARE PRODUCED TO ANALYZE FOR ANY DEFECTS

WHEN ALL THE IMPERFECTIONS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND CORRECTED, THE VEHICLE IS READY FOR FINAL PRODUCTION. IN THIS PHASE ALL PARTS WILL BE MANUFACTURED, ASSEMBLED AND PAINTED. FINALLY, EVERY VEHICLE IS SUBJECT TO A STRICT CHECK FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE BEFORE IT IS PACKAGED AND SHIPPED
