Is Powder Metallurgy Expensive?
How much does powder metallurgy cost per ton? The most commonly used materials in the powder metallurgy industry are: iron-based, copper-based, copper-iron-based, alloy steel, stainless steel, etc. The cost of powder metallurgy depends on many factors, including the cost of...
MIM is a technology that mixes metal powder with various resins called binders, uses an injection molding machine to mold the raw materials processed into a fluid, and then sintering to achieve near-net-shape production of three-dimensional complex-shaped metal parts. It...
How μ-Mim Technology Helps Medical Device Development
MIM (metal injection molding) is a relatively less modern metal forming process that originated in the United States in the 1970s. This technology was originally used in aerospace and defense. After more than 50 years of development, its application areas...
Tungsten-Copper Injection Molding Applications
Copper Injection Molding Copper Injection Molding (CuMIM) is an advanced technology predominantly used for manufacturing high-complexity heatsinks at a reduced cost. Leveraging copper’s exceptional thermal and electrical conductivity, this method enables the production of intricate shapes, particularly useful in the...
Low Alloy Steel Material for Metal Injection - MIM 4605
MIM 4605 (sintered) has excellent strength and good ductility due to the MIM process. This material is used in many industries such as: automotive, consumer goods and power hand tools.4605 MIM (hardfacing) is a low alloy steel with carbon, nickel...
Development of Micro Gear Manufacturing
Let's review the production process of tiny gears. In 1973, the oil crisis broke out in Japan. The government advocated that enterprises across the country reduce energy consumption. Motoo Matsuura, general manager of Japan Shuken Co., Ltd., a small gear-producing...
Micro-Injection Molding Process
The principle of micro-injection molding is to add granular or powdered plastic into the hopper of the injection molding machine, heat and melt the plastic in the injection molding machine and keep it in a flowing state, and then inject...
