COMPLEX SHAPES
Powder metallurgy enables the production of complex shapes directly from the compaction tooling, without the need for machining, including teeth, splines, profiles, frontal geometries, non-axisymmetric shapes, non-circular holes, etc-
HIGH DIMENSIONAL PRECISION
Powder metallurgy enables the production of high-precision components in large quantities, particularly in terms of diameter, with excellent surface finish.
RELIABILITY AND REPEATABILITY IN LARGE MASS PRODUCTION.
The high dimensional stability of the tools and the advanced production devices ensure exceptional reliability and repeatability in the large-scale production of sintered parts.
FUNCTIONAL POROSITY.
The microporosity of sintered materials can be used to contain a lubricating oil (self-lubrication), retain particles of a fluid (filtration), absorb sound (muffle), put particles in motion (fluidize), act as osteoconduction channel (osteointegration), and other specific functionalities.
UNIQUE AND ISOTROPIC MATERIALS
The solid-state diffusion mechanism used to create the microstructure allows for unique compositions and materials—such as composites with isotropic properties—that cannot be achieved by melting.
GREEN TECHNOLOGY
The powder metallurgy process is considered environmentally friendly due to its low material waste, recyclability of the product, and good energy efficiency, as the material is not melted.
