Properties of Titanium
Titanium has a high strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for weight-sensitive applications such as aerospace components.
Titanium has a stable oxide layer (TiO₂) on the surface, which is extremely resistant to corrosion in seawater, chlorine, acids and body fluids.
Titanium and its alloys have good biocompatibility, are non-toxic, and will not be rejected by the human body.
Pure titanium has a melting point of 1,668°C (3,034°F) and is suitable for components in high-temperature environments (such as turbine blades, exhaust systems).
Benefits of TIMIM
Titanium metal injection molding parts are near net shape, eliminating secondary machining costs.
For titanium and its alloys, casting is difficult, but metal injection molding allows high design flexibility.
MIM mass production has price advantages compared to CNC machining and additive manufacturing.
Metal injection molding material utilization can reach more than 95%, saving resources and costs.
Applications of Titanium MIM
Medical: Titanium Metal Injection Molding (Ti-MIM) is widely used to produce medical implants such as screws, plates, spinal devices, artificial joints, oral implants.
Surgical tools: Metal injection molding enables the production of surgical tools with complex features to meet the requirements of modern medical care.
Consumer Electronics: Titanium injection molding enables the production of small, precise components such as smartphone frames, watch casings, and lens mounts.
Aerospace and Defense: In the aerospace field, Ti-MIM is used to manufacture lightweight and high-strength components.

TI MIM Parts Manufacturing Process
The following is the basic process of titanium metal injection molding, including mixing, injection, debinding and sintering.
Designing
MIM parts design needs to consider numerous factors such as material selection, part geometry, wall thickness, sintering shrinkage, etc.
Tooling
The feedstocks enter the hopper, pass through the feed barrel, and are injected into the mold by the injection molding machine to form green parts.
Mixing
Metal powder and binder are mixed in a ratio of 60:40 to form the raw material, called "feedstock". Binder makes metal powder have better fluidity and adhesion.
Injecting
The feedstocks enter the hopper, pass through the feed barrel, and are injected into the mold by the injection molding machine to form green parts.
Debinding
Debinding is to remove the binder in the green parts. Debinding processes include thermal debinding, solvent debinding, catalytic debinding, etc.
Sintering
Sintering heats the components to a temperature below its melting point in a controlled atmosphere to obtain the desired mechanical properties.
