This paper researched the application of non-mold casting technology for reducing the development cycle and cost of tractor diesel engine cylinder body. The detail of the each process method has explained which based on the non-mold casting process of a diesel engine cylinder block. The results showed that rapid casting of diesel engine cylinder block can be realized by the non-mold casting composite forming technology, combined with CAD/CAE technology and virtual reality technology. The advantages of this method have fast speed, low cost, green, and lightweight, that is to say, piece manufacturing cycle was shortened by more than 50%, single piece manufacturing cost was reduced by more than 81%, and 8-9 molds were saved.
