Metal Injection Molding Parts (MIM Parts)

Specifications

What is Metal Injection Molding?

Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is A development of the traditional powder metallurgy (PM) and plastic injection Molding process. MIM process is an advanced powder processing technique because of net shaping with shape complexity at low processing energy and 100 % Material utilization.

the MIM Process

MixingBlend fine metal powders with proprietary ingredients to Create viscous feedstock.

MoldingForm complex shapes using standard injection molding Tools and equipment.

DebindingPrepare molded components for high temperature Sintering.

SinteringSubject components to temperatures up to 1600C to achieve up to 99% densification.

FinishingAdd standard engineering detail as needed (e.g., plate, Heat treat, black oxide).

MIM Materials:

Stainless Steels

304L, 316 L, 17-4 PH, 420, 440

Low Alloy Steel

4605, 4105, 2200

Titanium Alloys

Ti, Ti-6Al-4V

Soft Magnetic Alloys

MIM Application:

• Automotive Systems- Steering Columns (actuators, ignition Lock components), Sun Roofs (stop cams), Seating Mechanisms, Solenoids, Fuel Injectors
• Orthodontics- Brackets, Buccal Tubes
• Medical and Dental Instruments- Endoscopic Surgical Instruments
• Firearm Components- Triggers, Sights, Safeties, Seer Blocks
• Ordnance- Guidance Fins
• Hardware and Lock Parts- Lock Cylinders, Bolts, and Sidebars
• Computers and Electronics- Disk Drive Components
• Electrical- Connectors, Switches

MIM Advantage:

the metal injection molding (MIM) process offers the following Advantages:

• Cost-effective Manufacture of high volume complex parts
• Reduced Production time compared with investment casting
• Net-shape Manufacture with minimal material waste (runners, sprues recycable In-house): more significant as materials costs rise
• Mechanical Properties superior to castings and other PM parts reflecting fine Particle size and high sintered density
• Properties Equivalent to wrought alloys
• Wide Range of pre-alloys and master alloys available
• Minimum of finishing operations
