Successful powder metallurgy (PM) part design begins with understanding process limitations and material properties. You should maintain uniform wall thickness, avoid sharp corners, include proper draft angles, and consider tooling performance. Always balance strength, manufacturability, and cost. A well-designed PM part can save time, reduce

Ceramic materials have high hardness, strong wear and corrosion resistance, excellent heat resistance, and good biocompatibility. However, due to their low toughness and brittleness, they are difficult to shape with traditional methods, and later machining is also challenging. Ceramic Injection molding is a new method

Liquid Phase Sintering (LPS) is a sintering process where a liquid phase forms during the sintering of a powder compact, facilitating densification and bonding of solid particles. This process is used to sinter the components with high melting points that are difficult to sinter with

Electrochemical testing is a widely used method for evaluating the corrosion resistance of metals and alloys based on their electrochemical behavior in corrosive environments. It is typically conducted in a controlled electrochemical cell using a standard three-electrode configuration. This technique is particularly useful for assessing

The process of converting raw materials such as ores and alloys into useful metal products is known as a metal manufacturing process. There are multiple metal manufacturing processes, such as casting, forging, powder metallurgy, and CNC machining. These processes fall in the category of bulk

Soft Magnetic Composite (SMC) is a magnetic material made by pressing insulating iron powder into a shape and then heat treating it. SMC components are particularly valued for their ability to support innovative designs in motors and inductive solutions compared to traditional laminated technologies. The

Sintering, also called frittage, is a process that densifies and bonds powder particles into a solid part by applying high temperatures below their melting point. The most common sintering is powder metallurgy sintering, which is used to increase the strength, density, and desired mechanical properties

In the last few decades, powder metallurgy (PM) parts have emerged as an attractive manufacturing process for replacing wrought or cast components due to their design flexibility, low cost, tight tolerances, and good balance between ductility and tensile strength. Joining is a fundamental process in

Tolerance defines the acceptable variation in a part’s physical dimensions. It helps specify a part’s critical features and ensures proper assembly. In practice, specifying exact tolerances for parts can be time-consuming, costly, and inefficient. To improve efficiency, engineers often use standardized tolerance values defined by
