"Diecastation" is not a word.
"Diecasting" is the correct form of the word, which is a process for making metal objects. The adjective is "diecast" or "die-cast": "a diecast model car".
The process:
1. Metal is super-heated to liquid form:

2. The molten (liquid; hot) metal is forced between two molds called "die":

3. The object is cooled and edged (rough edges filed down), then painted, stained or finished with other pieces:
