A number of different techniques
are used to make metal parts and spare parts for machines and appliances. MIM
Metal Injection Molding is a very common process used for this purpose. It
enables the production of complex shapes in huge quantities. Fine metal powders
are used to be custom formulated with a binder and fed into a feedstock. This
process has many similarities with the high pressure die casting process and
the plastic injection molding process. The same shapes and configuration
features can also be created. But, the parts created by the MIM process are
comparatively smaller, and even more complex. Manufacturing such parts usually
require extensive machinery, or assembly operations.
The Metal Injection Molding process
has got a number of advantages over all other kinds of processes. This process
has significantly progressed ever since it was launched, and is now very
effective and efficient. It now offers a large number of components, size,
alloys, and complexity. Here are a few reasons why the process is so common:
·
Cost effective
·
Highly complex parts can be manufactured in high
volume
·
Production time reduced
·
Material wastage is minimum as runners and
sprues are recyclable in the house with the net-shape process technology
·
Dimensional tolerance can be controlled
·
Better part to part consistency
·
Mechanical properties of parts are superior to
the castings and other processes
·
High sintered density and fine particle sized
parts
·
Properties of products are equivalent to wrought
alloys
·
A wide range of master alloys and pre-alloys
·
Finishing operations are minimum
MIM Metal Injection Molding
is generally used for manufacturing parts that are less than 400 g in weight.
Separate parts are manufactured to be consolidated into a single piece. At
Dynacast, we have produced our own technique of using this process in the best
way possible. We produce parts in high volume and address even the most delicate
designs and intricate details. The master tool used at Dynacast applies the
multi-side technology and offers a high production rate. The parts-per-minute
achieved by this process is above all others.
The engineers at Dynacast are able
to offer you the best services. They are well experienced and are experts in
their own fields. They work by collaborating with the customers to understand
their needs and requirements, and even suggest changes and modifications in the
design to achieve maximum benefits. With Metal Injection Molding, you
get all your parts manufactured in maximum detail and complexity. The two
technologies of powdered metal and plastic injection molding are combined to
add the benefits of both. Approach Dynacast to get your parts manufactured, and
achieve all benefits and advantages.
