MIM technology
MIM stands for "Metal Injection Moulding" and is a highly efficient manufacturing technology for producing small, complex and precise metal parts.
MIM technology characteristics are...
- Suitable and economic for materials that are difficult to machine such as stainless steel and titanium
- Very low waste of material
- Cost efficient high volume production
The Manufacturing process in 4 steps
|
| |
Metal powder |
| Moulded part |
Fine metal powder is blended with organic binder materials in order to produce a special feedstock. |
| Using a plastic moulding machine, the feedstock is processed to produce the raw moulded part, which is slightly bigger in size than the final part. |
|
| |
Debinded part |
| Sintered connector housing |
The raw moulded parts are heated in a debinding & sintering oven where the binder material is removed from between the metal particles. |
| The debinded part is reheated at very high temperatures until the metal particles connect and form one solid metal part with a clean surface. |
