Powder Metallurgy (P/M) is a metal processing technology that
converts metallic powder into useful engineering components of
various shapes and properties. The major advantage of P/M is its
ability to make highly complex, high precision parts at a fraction
of the cost of competing technologies such as machining and
investment casting. It has gained widespread popularity in a wide
array of applications from automotive seat belt components,
electric contacts, soft magnetic cores, to a variety of structural
applications.
Powder Metallurgy uses sintering process for making various
parts out of metal powder. The metal powder is compacted by placing
in a closed metal cavity (the die) under pressure. This compacted
material is placed in an oven and sintered in a controlled
atmosphere at high temperatures and the metal powders coalesce and
form a solid. A second pressing operation, repressing, can be done
prior to sintering to improve the compaction and the material
properties.
Advantages of Powder Metallurgy:
1. Various material selection and energy saving
2. Minimum secondary machining process
3. Cost saving for complicated shaped product
4. Meting any dimensional product requirements
5. Improving dimensional precision
6. Achieving required microstructure with various material
selection
7. Supreme surface treatment
8. Improving hardness and endurance by adequate heat treatment
process
9. Manufacturing uniform products
*0. Suitable for self-lubricants & filters for minute
porosity
*1. Good for mass production
