Powder Metallurgy Review: PM and metal powder production
WEBPowder Metallurgy shines in the MPIF’s 2024 Design Excellence Awards competition. The annual Powder Metallurgy Design Excellence Awards competition, organised by the Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF), is an opportunity for PM part producers to showcase the capabilities of the full range of metal powder-based technologies to a global audience.
The Powder Metallurgy Process
WEBThe basic Powder Metallurgy process for structural press and sintered components. Powder Metallurgy comprises a family of production technologies, which process a feedstock in powder form to manufacture components of various types. These production technologies generally involve all or most of the following process steps:
Sintering in the Powder Metallurgy Process
WEBSintering is a heat treatment applied to a powder compact in order to impart strength and integrity. The temperature used for sintering is below the melting point of the major constituent of the Powder Metallurgy material. After compaction, neighbouring powder particles are held together by cold welds, which give the compact sufficient “green ...

Recent trends in Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) technology: Part 1 ...
WEBJun 6, 2012 · In Part 1 of this review, Bernard Williams looks at trends in HIP process technology. Part 2 will look at HIP application trends for powder materials. Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) involves the simultaneous application of high pressure (15,000 to 45,000 psi) and elevated temperature (up to 2500 ° C) in a specially constructed vessel.
Powder production technologies - Powder Metallurgy Review
WEBDeveloped by PyroGenesis, the plasma atomisation process uses argon plasma torches at > 10,000°C to melt and atomise titanium and other metals into fine droplets. The process has the distinction of producing highly flowable and very pure spherical metallic powders using wire as its feedstock. This method ensures a high level of traceability ...

The technical sessions are forums to review original and unpublished work addressing recent advances in the full spectrum …
MPIF releases Standard 35 – Materials Standards for PM Structural …
WEBAug 13, 2020 · The Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF) has released the 2020 edition of its Standard 35 – Materials Standards for PM Structural Parts. The document provides design and materials engineers with the latest engineering property data and information available to specify materials for structural parts made using Powder Metallurgy.
Economic considerations for powder metallurgy structural parts
WEBThe vast majority of Powder Metallurgy structural part applications are based on the winning of a cost competition against other routes for forming the same component shape. In turn, Powder Metallurgy’s cost competitiveness against other technologies is based on two major issues – lower energy consumption in the process and superior ...
