Material Characterization Solutions for Powder Metallurgy and Additive Manufacturing

New brochure available!

Powder metallurgy is a generic term that covers a range of processes for manufacturing metallic components from metal powders usually by first forming a dimensionally stable compact and then SinteringSintering is a production process for forming a mechanically strong body out of a ceramic or metallic powder. sintering it. The main processes include press and sinter, metal injection molding, hot or cold isostatic pressing and additive manufacturing.

Additive Manufacturing is a relatively new technique that permits local fusing of metal powders using a laser, electron beam, or by post-SinteringSintering is a production process for forming a mechanically strong body out of a ceramic or metallic powder. sintering adhesive bonded powders. There are a number of reasons for using a powder metallurgy process instead of a traditional process such as machining. These include significant cost savings, high dimensional accuracy, a good part to part reproducibility and a reduced waste, just to name a few advantages.
