Powdered Metal Parts Also visit: Casting Processes
Powdered Metal Parts are made by mixing carefully selected metal powders and compacting them at room temperature in a precision die. The parts are then heated, a process called sintering, to complete the metallurgical bond between powder particles. After sintering, parts usually have the required close tolerances, mechanical properties and surface finish specified in the part blue prints. This virtual no-waste process allows for nearly 100% raw material use with reduced manufacturing steps and reduced overall costs. Additional processes, including machining, heat treating and forging, provide even greater precision and strength. PM Parts are found in: Lock Hardware, Lawn and Garden, Firearms, Plumbing Parts, Business Machines, Computer Equipment, Printers, Copy Machine, Consumer Products, Automotive Industry, Hand and Power tool, just about everywhere.
Advantages of PM Powder metal parts are not shape sensitive. Near net shape production uses more than 97% of the starting raw material. Powder metal is an energy and material saving process. Intricate shapes are less expensively produced by powder metallurgy compared to machining. Powder metal also competes favorably with zinc die-casting. Less material waste, and fewer processing steps are some of the advantages of using the Powdered Metal Process. Using Powdered Metal Parts is an excellent way to help do your part for the environment. The production of these parts uses almost all raw materials to make them. This means there will be little waste created from their production. You can sleep well knowing that you have chosen an excellent option for you and the environment.
Examples of some PM Parts
Summary Powdered Metal Parts ( PM ) are produced by mixing carefully selected metal powders, then compacting them at room temperature in a precision sized die. The PM Parts are then heated ( called sintering). This produces the resulting shapes and completes the metallurgical bond between the powder particles. After sintering, parts usually have the required tolerances, mechanical properties and surface finish specified in the drawing of the parts. Thus raw materials utilization is nearly 100% and manufacturing steps and costs are kept to a minimum. If necessary, the parts may be machined, heat-treated, forged or otherwise processed further for even greater precision or strength.
