Metal Injection Molding, referred to as MIM (Metal Injection Molding), is a method of injection molding by mixing metal powder with binder. In contrast to other metal forming processes, such as sheet metal stamping, powder forming, forging and machining, MIM can form parts with highly complex geometric shapes. MIM can process metal materials including low alloy steel, stainless steel, tool steel, nickel base alloy, tungsten alloy, hard alloy, titanium alloy, magnetic materials, Kovar alloy, fine ceramics and so on.
In addition, MIM can also conduct material formulation research according to user requirements, manufacture any combination of alloy materials, and form composite materials into parts. The process of metal injection molding production line is:
It first mixes the selected powder with the binder, and then the mixture is pelleted and injected into the shape needed for molding. and the binder is disposed of after degreasing sintering, so as to get the metal products we want, or after subsequent shaping, surface treatment, heat treatment, machining and other ways to make the product more perfect.
