  • Additive Manufacturing

    Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, is a process by which a digital design is turned into a physical part layer by layer. This is the opposite of subtractive manufacturing processes, where a final design is cut from a larger block of material.

  • Metal Injection Molding

    Metal injection molding (MIM) is a metalworking process in which finely-powdered metal is mixed with binder material to create a "feedstock" that is then shaped and solidified using injection molding. The molding process allows high volume, complex parts to be shaped in a single step.

  • Metal Spray Coating

    Metal spraying is primarily used to produce coatings on structural materials. Such coatings provide protection against high temperatures, corrosion, erosion and wear.

Frequently Asked Questions.

What are the advantages of powdered metal over traditional metal manufacturing?

Powder metallurgy boasts many benefits over traditional manufacturing. It has reduced lead times and is more cost-effective since there’s no scrap metal waste. Higher accuracy and easy customization are some other advantages of using powdered metal.

Is powder metal stronger than wrought parts?

The strength of powdered and wrought metal depends on many factors, including composition and manufacturing process. But the ability to create complex shapes with powdered metal may afford higher strength in some cases.

Which industries use powder?

Powdered metal’s versatility makes it a popular choice for many industries, including aerospace, automotive, medicine, and power plants.
