-
Firstly advantage: full freedom of design
MIM technology can build more complex parts compared to other metal forming methods. Basically, all structures are achievable by injection molds can be applied to MIM.
-
Second advantage: more choices of material
Most of metal materials are functional in MIM, however, from economic perspective, applied materials mainly covers the iron-based, nickel, copper, titanium metal or alloy.
-
Third advantage: excellent physical and chemical properties
MIM physicochemical performance is also terrific because sintering density is highly close to the theoretical. For example, mechanical strength is significantly beyond traditional powder metallurgy.
-
Fourth advantage: delicate appearance
The surface roughness of MIM sintering green parts (Ra) can achieve 1μm. It can be obtained dazzling appearance by various surface treatments.
-
Fifth advantage: excellent dimensional accuracy
Generally, MIM can achieve accuracy tolerances ±0.5%. It can obtain an even higher dimensional accuracy once MIM works with other processing methods.
-
Sixth advantage: powerful and flexible production capacity
MIM can be adjusted flexibly and it can also rapidly improve the yield, which varies from hundreds a day to hundreds of thousands a day.
-
Seventh advantage: environmental friendly philosophy
The Utility of raw material used in MIM is close to 100%, which is a type of net forming technology, and can effectively avoid the waste of materials.
