• Medical Device Link .
  A service provider employs a five-step ceramic injection molding (CIM) process consisting of tool design and manufacturing, mixing, molding, debinding, and sintering, which yields high dimensional accuracy without the need for secondary operations. Suitable for projects where alternative...
• Case Study # 5 - Alloy F75
  . No MIM producer is able to produce medical grade Ti-6%V-4%Al. FloMet has now developed a MIM version of another implant grade alloy, F75. Development of F75 MIM components involved modification of the MIM process including feedstock formulation, injection molding, debinding, and sintering. Testing...

  ; and an ergonomic handle. The machine is suited for performing inspections, tool certification, CAD-to-part analysis, and reverse engineering. A service provider employs a five-step ceramic injection molding (CIM) process consisting of tool design and manufacturing, mixing, molding, debinding, and sintering...
• Mechanical Properties of Metal Injection Moulded 316L Stainless Steel Using Both Prealloy and Master Alloy Techniques
  master alloyed technique.5 Their findings. Published by Maney on behalf of the Institute. were that in the prealloyed state, 216 mm, 222 mm and. 231 mm powders can produce 99.2% density or better;. however, the ­31 mm powder was more susceptible to defect. formation during debinding and sintering...

  substrates and loaded into a furnace for debinding and sintering so a seating surface must be designed into the part. For nonselfsupported parts fixtures will be required during debinding and sintering. Field-Programmable Circuit-Board Pathway. The hinge geometry must accommodate a path for the FPCB...

• Isotropic Forming of Porous Structures via Metal Injection Molding
  than 1*10-13 m2 and a maximum pore radius of less than 5 µm . Water-atomized powder proved to be better suited for low-solids-loading metal injection molding (<50vol% loading) since its interparticle friction provided greater strength and fewer defects during the molding and debinding process steps...
• Powder Metal Designs Win PowderMet 2009 Awards
  . The part is made using metal-injection-molded top and bottom halves that are joined during the debinding and sintering process. The two sections are laser welded together for a leak-free seal. The nozzle ensures optimal use of compressed air and complies with U.S. and E.U. noise regulations. The 316L...
• Pinpointing parts for PIM
  a reflection of the component size, tooling cost and complexity, mold cycle time, debinding and sintering speed, and other relatively straightforward factors. As with plastic injection molding, many shapes are possible, but certain features greatly impact processing ease, yields, and costs. So how do...
• Medical Device Link .
  . This process basically removes the majority of the plastic material, or binders, by burning it off. After debinding, the part is put into a high-temperature sintering kiln at ~1500 C. This is known as the sintering step, in which the part shrinks, densifies, and takes its final shape. The end...
