Molding of Meso Carbon Micro Beads by Powder Injection Molding Technology.

Outstanding features of powder injection molding for micro parts manufacturing

When powder injection molding first appeared on the market, it was very well received for the potential it offered. However, the market did not grow as expected at that time. In recent years, the perseverance of manufacturers in this field has borne fruit, and today, the market is about 10 billion yen. However, looking at the market, one is still painfully aware of how low its recognition remai...

Simulation and modeling of macro and micro components produced by powder injection molding: A review

During the recent years powder processing technologies have gained much attention due to the less energy consumption and recyclable powders. Manufacturing of complicated parts by the conventional powder metallurgy (PM) method is hard due to the uniaxial pressure, which leads to the low design flexibility. In order to prevail these constraints, powder injection molding (PIM) process, which inclu...

Progress in Titanium Metal Powder Injection Molding

Metal powder injection molding is a shaping technology that has achieved solid scientific underpinnings. It is from this science base that recent progress has occurred in titanium powder injection molding. Much of the progress awaited development of the required particles with specific characteristics of particle size, particle shape, and purity. The production of titanium components by injecti...
