  • Powder Metal Design Guidlines
    One of the advantages of using a Powder Metal process to manufacture a part is the ability to design the part to exact specifications that eliminate the need for secondary operations or additional machining. Parts can be simple or complex and combined with other parts to reduce assembly costs. Here
  • Powder Metallurgy (PM) Primer: Conventional Powdered Metal Components
    Powder Metallurgy (PM) has advanced considerably during the last seventy years. This paper describes the conventional press & sinter process used for manufacturing highly sophisticated net-shape metal components. It highlights process advantages and the effects derived from material or process
  • Powder Metal Molding
    Powder metal molding uses heat and pressure to form precision parts and shapes. The process begins by filling a die with powder and then compacting it at room temperature to form an engineered shape. Next, this compacted shape is ejected from the press and fed through a high-temperature furnace
  • Press Installed, Lickety Split
    occupying a 60,000 sq. ft. building on the firm's sprawling campus in Elkhart. In addi tion to RV steps, the building's inven tory of presses as well as additional fabricating and finishing equipment-- lasers, press brakes, robotic welding cells, a powder coating line, etc.--turns out cam locks, bar
  • Hot Isostatic Presses (HIP)
    Hot isostatic presses (HIP) use an atmosphere of argon or other gas mixtures that are heated up to 3000º F and pressurized up to 100,000 psi. Evacuated steel or metal cans, or sintered surfaces are used to contain and maintain a seal during hot isostatic pressing (HIPing). Hot isostatic presses
  • Economy in Car-making - Powder Metallurgy
    powder will be treated in some detail and, in particular, will demonstrate how high-performance iron powders and press-ready premixes are produced in the iron powder plant of Hoeganaes Europe in Buzau, Romania. Figure 1 depicts a relatively simple part: an exhaust flange for an automobile
  • Superlative parts crowned at powder-metal competition
    Members of the Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF), Princeton, N.J., once again prove inventive powder-metal (P/M) parts can outperform their machined, stamped, cast, and forged counterparts. Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF), Princeton, N.J., once again prove inventive powder-metal
  • Powder-metal parts earn top honors
    In the Metal Powder Industries Federation's annual Powder Metallurgy Design Excellence competition, an end cover for a dipole cryomagnet used in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) took top honors in the Other category for atypical PM components. The end cover for a dipole cryomagnet is used
